Hello, I would like to introduce a credits at the beginning of the animation. So how can I add cells at the start of the animation?

Just click on frame 1 above all the layers and then press F5 to insert a frame. Any keyframes that were in the first frame will have to be manually dragged over to the second frame.

Yes, thanks for your reply. I tried that too but via the F5 key I can't add a cell BEFORE all the animation.

They're called frames, not "cells". And yes, you can, using the method I just described.

Oh unfortunately it doesn't work, despite several tries the second half of my animation is disorganized.

then you're doing something wrong.

your timeline after the new frame is inserted should look exactly the same as before except every layer has an empty keyframe at that 1st frame.

yes, maybe but I don't know what? 😐

well, what's the timeline look like?

does each layer have an empty initial keyframe followed by frames that used to the initial keyframe?

here's a before pic:

all frames/layers selected:

all moved 1 frame:

select all the timeline frames (shift click the top left frame/layer and the bottom right frame/layer) and move them (drag) them 1 frame to the right.

put whatever you want (eg, credits) in the now empty first frame
