Cartesian Offset Shortcut Changed from Flair 6 to Flair 7

Summary

In Flair 6, operators can type 0.1 + in a Cartesian field to add 0.1 to all keyframes of that axis at once — a quick way to shift a camera path. The shortcut still exists in Flair 7 / Classic, but two things changed:

  1. Must be in Cartesian Priority before the shortcut will work.
  2. The + key is now Shift+= (plus sign requires Shift on most keyboards).

The Change

Flair Version How to offset all keyframes by 0.1
Flair 6 Type 0.1 = in a Cartesian field (where = acts as the plus key)
Flair 7 / Classic Switch to Carts Priority first, then type 0.1 Shift+=

Steps (Flair 7 / Classic)

  1. Go to Job → Configuration → Priority To → Cartesians to switch into Cartesian Priority.
  2. In any Cartesian axis field (e.g. the Track X value box in the timeline), type 0.1 followed by Shift+=.
  3. Flair applies the offset to all keyframes for that axis.
  4. Switch back to Axis Priority when done (use Convert if required).

This shortcut also works with other operators — for example 2* doubles all values, and -0.5+ subtracts 0.5 from all keyframes. Flair uses a Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) style calculator in these fields.
