Had an interesting problem today when building some timeline macro's. I was trying to build a simple two keyframe effect. KF1 no action, KF2 recall a macro.

Worked perfectly the first time, however when I went to build the second one I couldn't clear out the previous macro from the Timeline Macro menu. I couldn't insert a no action keyframe, the only way I could get the action back to blank was to reboot the panel.

Looked at the manual and couldn't find anywhere how to delete it out. We are on version 7.22

As Allan said....no action w/ ver 8...but if you were seeing the "no action" option..you may have been in the "rewind action". menu in the macro timeline. section. (5441.1) since this was available in 7/2. Menus are very similar looking.

Sorry I meant a blank KF, as you say no action is only in rewind.

"No Action" on a macro timeline was introduced in version 8 software.  When I was on v7.2 and needed a macro timeline keyframe to do nothing, I just created a dummy macro and put that on the keyframe instead.

My work around was storing a single keyframe macro efftect on 99 that had no action after a reboot and storing it on my Memory stick. Reminds me I need to annoy our engineers again to see if we can upgrade yet.
