Unable to Edit or Add Properties to Existing Animation Clips in Unity 2D

Unity Engine

I’m working on a 2D Unity project, and I’m having trouble adding animations to my animation clips. I previously created some animations, but now I can’t add new animations or modify the existing ones as expected.

In the screenshot, you can see the Animation window with the “Player_walkRight” clip selected, but when I try to add properties or edit the frames, it doesn’t respond as intended. The “Add Property” button is grayed out, and I’m unable to make changes to the animation.

Is the animation you are trying to modify embedded in a model? If so you should duplicate it and edit that version.

The other thing that might cause this is you don’t have a gameObject with the animation selected, so it doesn’t know what properties are accessible. I think this is more likely because if I remember correctly the keyframes are also grayed out when the animation is embedded.

Thank you for your help; I just hadn’t selected the object.
