Why we like it

Copy Key Transform earns its place in the Superhive library as a focused utility: it does one job, copying transform keys from a target object on the frames you list, and exposes location, rotation, and scale as independent toggles.

What is Copy Key Transform?

Copy Key Transform is a Blender add-on from Douripo for copying transform animation keyframes from a target object. Three separate switches control what gets copied: Copy Position brings over location keyframes, Copy Rotation brings over rotation keyframes, and Copy Scale brings over scale keyframes. You can enable any one of them or several at once.

Frame selection uses a text entry where you type the keyframes you want, including ranges. An entry like 1,3,5-10,25-100 mixes single frames and spans in one list.

The add-on runs on Blender 2.8x, 2.9x, and 3.0 through 3.5, and is released under the GPL license. It ships as version 1.0.0, the initial release, and comes with documentation. Published several years ago, it has recorded more than ten sales. A demo video is also available.

Who is Copy Key Transform best for?

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Copy Key Transform support?

Copy Key Transform runs on Blender 2.8x and 2.9x, covering 2.8, 2.81, 2.82, 2.83, 2.9, 2.91, 2.92, and 2.93, plus the 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 releases. If you work in one of those versions, the add-on is built to function there. For newer Blender releases beyond 3.5, check the developer's page, since compatibility past that point is not stated.

How do I choose which frames Copy Key Transform copies?

Copy Key Transform uses a Frames field where you type the specific keyframes you want to copy. The field accepts both single frame numbers and ranges, so an entry such as 1,3,5-10,25-100 mixes individual frames with spans in a single list. Alongside that, three toggles decide the type of key involved: Copy Position for location, Copy Rotation for rotation, and Copy Scale for scale. You can turn on whichever combination matches the animation you want to transfer.

Is Copy Key Transform free, and what license does it use?

Copy Key Transform is listed as free here in the catalog, and it is released under the GPL license. Licensing terms can change over time, so for current pricing and any conditions attached, the developer's page is the place to confirm before you rely on it. The add-on comes from Douripo, and its listing on Superhive records more than ten sales, along with documentation to help you get started.

What does version 1.0.0 of Copy Key Transform include?

Copy Key Transform is at version 1.0.0, described as the initial release. That version delivers the core function of copying transform animation keyframes from a target object on the frames you specify, with separate switches for location, rotation, and scale. It also comes with documentation, and a demo video is available if you want a look before installing. For any updates released after 1.0.0, the developer's page will carry the latest details.
