Editing Time
In some cases, directly working with keys isn’t what you want to do. For example, if you need to change the
animation length from six seconds to five seconds, you want to work in the Dope Sheet’s Edit Ranges mode.
To switch to this mode, click the Edit Ranges button on the Keys toolbar. In this mode, the key ranges are
displayed as black lines with square markers on either end, as shown in Figure 36.8.

Selecting time and the Select Keys by Time utility
Before you can scale, cut, copy, or paste time, you need to select a track and then select a time block. To
select a section of time, click the Select Time button and drag the mouse over the time block.
