Can I change the looping settings for mutliple frames at once, for a graphic symbol?

Question

So at the moment I am scrolling through a 4000 frame long graphic symbol, and I am individaully selecting each key frame, and switching the looping properties from "play graphic in loop" to "play single frame for the graphic". This is taking a while and I wonder if there is a quicker way to do this.

Step 1: go through and select individual key frame

Step 2: go to graphic symbol properties, change from loop to play single frame

My mistake was adding new keyframes within the symbol, after I had already created the keyframe movement of the outside/main graphic symbol.

So can I change the looping setting for all keyframes( or a select range of frames?) Or do I have to go through and click each keyframe and change the individual settings?

Any help will be great, thanks

Hi mate,

I can see that the symbols are in armature layers, which I have not tried, but generally speaking you should be able to.

1. Choose Edit Multiple Frames from the button in the timeline:

2. Define the range to All Frames from the Onion Skinning button to the left of it - do a long press to pop out the menu. (Stupid UX I know).

3. Make sure you unlock all layers that you want to stop and keep all others locked.

4. Choose Select All from the Edit menu or Ctrl+A to make sure all keyframes are selected.

5. Press the button to stop the symbols.

Hope this helps.
