Switch animation modes (Photoshop Extended)

In Photoshop Extended, you can use the Animation palette in either frame animation mode or timeline animation mode. Frame mode shows the frame duration and layer animation properties of your Photoshop document. Timeline mode shows the frame duration and keyframed layer properties of videos and animations in a timeline.

You should select the mode you want before starting an animation. Switching modes in an open document converts a frame animation to a timeline animation or vice versa.

Important: You may lose some interpolated keyframes when converting a timeline animation to a frame animation (the appearance of the animation doesn’t change).
 In the Animation palette, do any of the following:

  • Click the Convert To Frame Animation icon .

  • Click the Convert To Timeline Animation icon .

  • From the Animation palette menu, choose either Convert To Frame Animation or Convert To Timeline.
