Eclipse Animator shortcuts
Quick answer
In Eclipse Animator (the Roblox Studio plugin), V inserts a keyframe, X deletes it, J scales and M splits keyframes. G grabs and R rotates like Blender, T switches axis, Y toggles global/local, Ctrl + B opens the camera view and B toggles onion skin.
All the keys shown in the developers’ official tutorial, grouped by task. Each row links to the moment in the video where it is demonstrated.

Blender camera movement: the listing describes a setting that uses Shift + middle mouse button and middle mouse button, like Blender’s viewport.
New to Eclipse? These keys make more sense in context in the beginner tutorial.
Questions
FAQ
What is the keyframe shortcut in Eclipse Animator?+
V inserts a keyframe and X deletes it. J scales selected keyframes and M splits them.
Does Eclipse Animator use Blender shortcuts?+
Partly. G grabs and R rotates like in Blender, and the listing mentions a Blender camera movement setting using Shift + middle mouse and middle mouse. Other keys, such as V for a keyframe, are specific to Eclipse.
Why does R do two different things?+
R is Blender-style rotation when you work on a rig, and it adjusts the field of view when you work with a camera. Which one you get depends on what you have selected.
Can I change the shortcuts?+
The listing mentions lots of customization and presets, but the developers have not documented key remapping. Check the plugin settings or ask in the official Discord.
