Hi,

I have an array of objects that I'll use the same animation for all each object with a small delay, to achieve a whip like effect.
I'd like to animate the first object and copy the animation to the other objects.
How should I do it?

Thanks,

You can use the Animation Mixer and offset the object animation on different tracks.

It depends on what kind of animations you want to make...
If transformations only, then it is a good idea to select and animate all the objects at once and then
offset each animation in the Dope Sheet.

A simple way to do it:
1. Copy/Paste Animation on all your objects
2. Select the 2nd object and use Animation / Sequence / All parameters on selection and enter the desird offset.
3. Repeat for rest using larger offsets.

when I copy/paste an animation the objects move to the first object position, center to center.
What should I do?

Just select the Fcurve you want to offset in the Animatoin Editor and translate entire curve up or down until the object is in the correct first position. ;)

Thanks...
