Orange key indicators showing in 4.2.40 but no keys in Timeline or Graph

Bee

Hi! I'm currently using Spine 4.2.40 and I'm facing a strange issue. I keep getting orange key indicators (showing active keys for rotation and transform) in the properties panel, but I can't see any keyframes in the timeline or grapheditor. I've checked the dopesheet, made sure the correct bone is selected, and even restarted Spine, but the keys still don’t show up.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to clear or force refresh the Timeline to display these hidden keys?

It seems like you are experiencing an issue where the orange key indicators are visible, but the keyframes are not showing up in the timeline or graph editor. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve this issue:

Show All Bones/Slots: Press Ctrl+H to ensure all bones and slots are visible. If any are hidden, their keys won't appear in the dopesheet.
Check Dopesheet Filters: Make sure no dopesheet filters are active that might be hiding the keys. You can refer to the Dopesheet - Spine User Guide: Filter for more information.
Show All Skin Attachments: In the tree properties, enable "Show all skin attachments" to ensure all timelines (deform, sequence) for all attachments in all skins are visible.
Deselect Everything: Press space to deselect everything, which will allow you to see all keys in the dopesheet for the active skeleton.
Minimized Views: Ensure that the dopesheet and graph views are not minimized. You can click the graph or dopesheet icons in the upper right of the window titlebar, or press F9 to toggle the views.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, it might be a bug or a specific case that requires further investigation.

Perhaps you're moving bones but not keying the changes.
If you don't want to manually key changes, please make sure Auto Key is enabled:

Orange means you have made changes that aren't keyed, which explains why you don't see keys. 🙂 I assume you don't have auto key enabled, as Erika mentioned. If you do have it enabled and you see orange keys, then it's a bug that we'd like to fix.

Auto key is enabled, and as you can see i have no rotation on my root bone but somehow it shows there is?

Since auto key is enabled, seeing an orange key is a bug for sure. Can you send the .spine to we can see/fix it? We'll keep it private and there's no need to include images. contact@esotericsoftware.com
