Hi,

The Frame Picker simply displays the existing frames of the selected graphic symbol, so there's no way to add new frames directly through it. To add frames, you need to edit the symbol itself — open it in edit mode and create the desired (key)frames on its timeline. Once you're done and exit symbol edit mode, the new frames will appear in the Frame Picker automatically.
