Hi! Is there a way to select all keyframes in the graph editor using the keyboard? It's very inconvenient to do this with the mouse.

@Vadym B. 

Since Command A has been what's been used for selecting all of the Layer instead of the keyframes for the last several decades, maybe with a modifier key.  Of course, if it's made available as a keyboard shortcut to begin with, it can be anything the user wants to map it to.

It would be logical to do this like in most other programs - cmd+A, but that selects all layers, unfortunately, which is not logical while the graph window is active. Thanks!

Good idea.  I've upvoted it.

That feature could be a great addition to After Effects. Moving your thread to the Ideas section so that others can vote. 


Thanks,

Not already assigned but there is a command the selects all visible keyframes on selected layers or all keyfremas on all layers.

You can assign is by going to Edit > Keyboad Shortcuts.

Search for: Keyframes

Visible Keyframes on Selected Layers

Visible Keyframes on All Layers

The commands are based on working with keyframes label groups but should work for general purposes.

This is not what I need. There should be a shortcut to quickly select all visible keys in the graph editor. All programs have this, and AE should have it too
