Hi,
I have a little fairy with wings. They seem to flap automatically.
I applied a Sit Talk animation. They flap just fine while doing Sit Talk animation.
Then I added the Dance Graceful animation afterward which adds a transition to standing (which is great) but the wings stop flapping. She does start dancing perfectly.

I look in the time line, under the fairy with motion and gestures checked.

I can only see the dance animation. No clue where the wing flapping is.

What am I missing?

I found the wings under Accessories and right clicking revealed a Set Speed control.
If I reset the Flapping Frames to 3600 (the length of clip) that works.
But then it resets the speed to 16.7 % approximately.
If I reset the speed to 100%, the frame duration changes back to 300.

I tried to simply copy the 300 frame motion with 100% speed by Right Clicking, then advance the time line, then right click paste. Nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

Where did you click Copy? You need to select a clip on the timeline (the bar at the top of the clip becomes green) and then RMC on that green bar > Copy.

Hi,
Thanks again. I honestly did exactly that: Clicked the animation until it turned green in the timeline. Right click, copy. Move the timeline indicator past the the green highlighted animation, and then clicked paste.
Perhaps I'm supposed to click on the fairy avatar and then paste there? I think I tried that and nothing. It was as if the paste buffer was empty.

Probably just me.

No, you should been adding wings to the timeline, go to animation track and copy that. Suppose that is what you've been doing....
Try to replicate the clip by dragging it to the right with Ctrl+Left Mouse CLick.
Or select a Loop icon in the timeline menu, hover mouse to the end of the clip until a cursor changes to the plus with arrow and then Left Click and drag the clip to the right to replicate as many times as you wish.

Wow, great, Thank You!

I'll give that a try. Didn't even know you could do that, but it sounds just like duplicating a particle.

Thanks again.
