Working as intended.

  • Duplicate selection: copy and paste keyframes in the same track
  • Duplicate transposed: copy and paste keyframes in the selected track

However, reversing selected keyframes would be a nice feature.

Ok. Thanks for the clarification. I still don't get how it is supposed to work. If I right click on a different track and choose "Duplicate Transposed" it still pastes them in the same track. If I left click on the target track it deselects the keyframes.

I'm still confused about them. (I'm translating the engine)
Messing around with the Animation Editor and they seem no different.

Selecting Blue keyframe and move the time indicator:

  • Duplicate selection: Green keyframe
  • Duplicate transposed (selecting the 2nd track): Orange keyframe

Edit:

If I left click on the target track it deselects the keyframes.

Try clicking at the track's name instead of the keyframes area. It shouldn't be deselected. I'm convinced that it's a usability issue and I've read that the whole AnimationEditor is getting revamped.

@Noshyaar it may be a good idea to add that explanation to the docs

@GDQuest I believe this functionality was removed so you can close this issue. I tried following the OPs instructions and couldn't get the "Duplicate Transposed" option to show up. I checked the code and something related to it is still in there but what I think is the keyboard shortcut isn't working.

It's been removed, yes, closing.

The duplicate transposed option still exists in the Edit menu and it even has a default shortcut:

I opened a new issue, because I think it should be renamed or something: godotengine/godot#55713
