Option 1: Use Fill Empty Cells for multiple gaps
If you have multiple gaps in your timeline that you’d like to fill, using this option is the fastest way to do it.
- In the Timeline or Xsheet view, select the range of frames that contain the gaps you want to fill.
- Activate the Fill Empty Cells command by doing one of the following:
- In the Timeline or Xsheet view, right-click and select Exposure > Fill Empty Cells.
- In the top menu, select Animation > Cell > Fill Empty Cells.
- In the Timeline View toolbar, click the Fill Empty Cells
button.
- The gaps will be filled by extending the previous drawing.
Option 2: Extend the exposure of a single drawing
If you need to fill one gap, or isolated gaps, extending a specific drawing may work better.
- In the Timeline or Xsheet view, select the frame in the gap that you want the previous drawing to extend to.
- Extend the exposure by doing one of the following:
- Use the hotkey F5.
- In the Timeline view, right-click and select Extend Exposure.
- In the Timeline View
menu, select Exposure > Extend Exposure.
- The previous drawing will be extended to the selected empty frame.
