    While you can copy the particular keys associated with the in scene objects,(select the particular frame keys in timeline, right click, copy selected keys, paste selected keys) when you paste those items it will effect the keys before and after.

    This is how keyframing works.

    The only way to avoid this is to create a seperate set of frames for the pasted keys.

    When it comes to keyframe animation, you may need to create multiple versions,that is scenes, of a particular set of frames to achieve your final result, as opposed to trying to do it all at once.

    There is no way to select all keyfames for a specific frame and cipy them to another frame?

    I think what DrunkMonkeyPr says is that the interpolated frames between two key frames will of course change, if you put a third key frame in there.

    I don't know how to select all keys of a keyframe, so you could copy and paste them; might be doable with a marquee (drag selection box).

    My go to solution is shortcuts for 'memorize pose' and 'restore pose' instead of copy/paste keys. Go to frameA, select figure, memorize, go to frameB, restore, finished. Will be tedious if you animate 8 figures in one scene (the thought scares me).

    I wish the keyboard shoutcus worked better :/
