Newb in need of help!
Im a newb on a mac and i need help!
i have a piece of animation and i want to move it forward on my time line. so i have more room in the 'front and back'.
How do i do that? when i grab all my 'lines' in graph editor and push down on the middle button on my mouse, i just zoom in. when i THOUGHT if you push W and hold down, you can move lines, but again i just zoom in.
Need of help please!

Also one more question, in my channels, whenever i click on the timeline to see the animation, i have to go back click on VIZ: crtl and re enter numbers for my controls. How do i make it that it doesn't default to 0 ever time i go to the timeline?
if that makes any sense.

first pic is of when i have everything selected, so i can make the changes:
and then the next pic is me moving to another number in the time line to make changes:
its a pain to have to go back to viz: crtl and keep clicking on the channels i need to selected to be able to make move changes. EVER time!
Does that help at all?

im still new to maya so im sorta guessing at some of this....
well its under channels, then i click on the logo on the ground that says viz: crtl and it's under controls: there's ones that i have to put a number under to be able to move his limbs around. All extra, face crtl, trunk crlt, right arm crtl. i have to put a '1' in these for me to be able to move for each frame on the timeline.
the issue is, whenever i click over to another frame on the timeline i have to keep going back into the viz: crtl channels, control and making these changes instead of it just caring over.

the only other thing i can think of, since at school im on a PC and i grew to know how to use PC controls, im still getting used how to use it on my mac at home.
when you are just on the main screen, and you want to make a change, how'd move to the left or right? does it have to be with the middle scroll key?
for instance, im working on a part of him and i want move to the left, with out having to zoom out.

+=(number of frames to move)
or
-=(number of frames)
and this will slip your anim + or - the number of frames you want.
