Unity 4.3 - 2D Animation - Dope Sheet Not Working!!

[Spinnernicholas]

I am trying to animate a sprite using the new dope sheet in the animation editor and it is not working. I have used curves in the past to animate all sorts of things, and it works great. But, I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or don’t know how to use it, but the Dope Sheet isn’t working to animate 2D Sprites. I am a very technical person and do I.T. and computer programming, so this is very frustrating. Here is a description of my problem:

I have a sprite sheet with 64x64 pixel sprites in a 8x3 grid, all aligned at center.
I have a single scene with only a camera and a sprite object.
I added the animation component to the sprite.

I created 1 animation and added the spriterenderer sprite property to the animation.
It automatically created a key frame at 0:00 and 1:00, I added one at 0:30.
I then selected the key frame at 0:30 and changed the sprite property.

Hit play on the animation window, the animation runs, but they sprite stays as the sprite I selected for 0:30.

Is this a glitch?
or
Am I missing something?

I ran into this exact same issue last night and I was able to get around it. Once I sliced my sprite sheet, I selected all the sprites that were part of a particular animation, and dragged them into the scene view. This automatically created an animation for me using those sprites.

You can only use the dope sheet with the Animator Component, not the Animation Component.
