# Clone

## Description

Clone can duplicate an entire set of keyframes across multiple properties, and across multiple layers. Typically, After Effects can't understand keyframe copy/pasting over multiple layers and will duplicate the layer. So Clone is a fantastic tool to make this process more automated.

## Setup

1. Select any amount of keyframes
2. move the CTI to a location on the Timeline
3. set the Clone options and Run Clone
4. the keyframe set will be pasted to CTI position

## Options

When running Clone there are a couple different modes you can select to Clone the keyframes.&#x20;

**Standard**\
This option will simply paste the keyframe set to the CTI position

**Reverse**\
Will reverse each set of keyframes independently on each property.&#x20;

**Mirror**\
Will flip the entire keyframe group order together "reversed as a group"
