timeline.insertKeyframe()

#### Availability

Flash MX 2004.

#### Usage

timeline.insertKeyframe(\[frameNumIndex\])

#### Parameters

frameNumIndex A zero-based index that specifies the frame index at which to insert the keyframe in the current layer. If you omit frameNumIndex, the method uses the frame number of the current playhead or selected frame. This parameter is optional.

#### Returns

Nothing.

#### Description

Method; inserts a keyframe at the specified frame. If you omit the parameter, the method inserts a keyframe using the playhead or selection location.
This method works the same as timeline.insertBlankKeyframe() (../Timeline_object/timeli27.md) except that the inserted keyframe contains the contents of the frame it converted (that is, it’s not blank).

#### Example

The following example inserts a keyframe at the playhead or selected location:

javascript

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertKeyframe();

The following example inserts a keyframe at Frame 10 of the second layer (remember that index values are different from frame or layer number values):

javascript

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().currentLayer = 1; fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertKeyframe(9);
