If you're working in Blender and you're not seeing any keyframes in the timeline, there are a few things you can check.

First, make sure that you're in the right mode. Keyframes are only visible in the "Animation" mode in the timeline. If you're in any other mode, you won't see any keyframes.

Next, check to see if the "Only Show Selected" button is enabled in the timeline. If it is, then only keyframes for the selected object will be shown. To see all keyframes, disable this button.

Finally, make sure that you're looking at the correct frame range in the timeline. By default, the timeline only shows the frames that are currently in your render range. To see all keyframes, expand the timeline to show the entire animation range.

If you're still not seeing any keyframes, it's possible that there are none yet. In that case, you can create some keyframes by adding them manually or by using the "Record Keyframes" tool.

Q: Why can't I see the keyframes in blender?

A: There could be a few reasons why you can't see the keyframes in Blender. One reason could be that you have the Keyframes auto-hide feature enabled in the Timeline editor. To disable this, go to the Timeline editor's header and click on the little arrow icon next to the word "Keyframes." This will open up the Keyframes auto-hide settings. In the Keyframes auto-hide settings, make sure that the "Show Keyframes" option is disabled.

Another reason why you might not be able to see the keyframes in Blender is because they are not on the same frame as the current frame. To see all of the keyframes for an object, go to the Dope Sheet editor and make sure that the object's keyframes are visible in the editor. To do this, click on the little triangle next to the object's name in the Dope Sheet editor. This will open up the object's keyframes. If the keyframes are not on the same frame as the current frame, they will be dimmed. To see all of the keyframes for an object, you can also go to the Graph Editor. In the Graph Editor, click on the little triangle next to

Q: Why can't I see my keyframes in Blender 2d?

A: There are a few possible reasons why you can't see your keyframes in Blender 2d:

  1. You may have accidentally turned off the keyframe display in the Timeline editor. To turn it back on, go to the Timeline editor's header and click on the small key icon next to the word "Keyframes".

  2. You may be in a different frame range than where your keyframes are located. To change the frame range, go to the Timeline editor's header and click on the "Range" dropdown menu.

  3. You may be zoomed in too far on the Timeline editor. Try zooming out by pressing Shift+F.

  4. If you're still having trouble, try resetting the Timeline editor's view by pressing Alt+F.
