Quick aniblock question

Can you bake the timeline animation to an aniblock *on a sub-track*? Baking them always puts the new block on the main track and there doesn't seem to be a way to move blocks between the main track and subtracks (am I missing something, because that really should be a no-brainer). Thanks.

    if you have subtracks that are visable  then they will be included in the animated timeline when you bake and create a aniblock so all the animations will be combined & saved to the main top level animate2 track.

    But you can click off the visable for the subtrack or the main track. and it will not be included in the aniblock creation when you go to bake and create the aniblock .and same for if your trying to save an animation on a subtrack but you do not want the main track animation included with the subtrack animation. so just click off the visablitiy of the track you do not want to include and it should not be be included with the creation of the aniblock when you bake and create.  . But all aniblocks created wil be saved on the top level track. no matter what tracks you have saved.  

    To move aniblocks from one track to another or a subtrack to a main track just simply click and highlight the aniblock then right click the aniblock and then choose cut on the menu . next then choose the track you want to move the aniblock to and right click again on the track and simply click paste that will move the aniblocks between tracks

    If I recall correctly, you cannot move aniblocks between tracks. However, once you make a track and save it, then it can be loaded into a sub-track just like other aniblocks. It seems to be an extra step, but I am not aware of a faster route.

    Thank you very much, I didn't notice that you had to click on an aniblock once before the Cut/Paste options would be available. That makes things much easier, as I prefer working in the new timeline, but still want to use aniblocks for speed adjustment and animation placement. Much appreciated.
