    I'm working with the Animation Editor in Unity 2022.3.4 LTS, and while right-clicking on a keyframe in the Dopesheet window opens the tangent menu, in the Curves Editor, only 'Add Key' is displayed. In previous versions (2019), this feature existed in both editors.

    It's quite cumbersome to constantly switch between the editors.

    There's a range of problems with details that show up somewhere in 2022.3.2 and 2022.3.3 and look like there's changes being made to the dominance of UI Toolkit over older methods of doing UI both in the Editor and Games. it seems that the last build anyone should be using (for sanity) is 2022.3.1

    I know it's not nearly a solution, and you'll have to reorientate and re-zoom and reselect etc..; but "C" is the shortcut to swap between Curve and Dopesheet view when focus is in the Animation Editor

    I discovered this when trying to use an AnimationCurve during the GMTK Games Jam just yesterday. I'm working on a much bigger project that relies heavily on AnimationCurves having all their normal features, but when I saw this it made me think twice about upgrading the big project. If the curves aren't editable, it'll be a huge problem. Worse still, if the curves are forced into the new reduced feature set, it'll break literally everything.

    Up voted the issue. Its a big problem for editing curves outside of the Animation window, like Particle System curves for example. I have found that pressing "Enter"/ "Return" after selecting a key allows you to type in specific numbers for value and time. Anyone know a way to break the tangents on a key?

    So one of the most powerful features of Unity is Curve Editor still not get fixed in 2022.3.5f1, leaving animation designers / particle effect designers having to come to 2021, make curves library, and import that back to 2022.3 to use.
    This is solution for people who don't know what to do with current curve editor. Spread the word.

    Sheesh this is really super disconcerting. Does anyone at Unity even use Unity? How could at least 2 LTS releases still have such a fundamental bug and get released? Quality Control = none ? or No one at Unity even uses Unity. July 28 and still not fixed.

    This horrible issue still works in 2022.3.4f1. I'm crying and the curve editor is leaving me. Is this issue only resolved in 2022.3.6? why! Please take care of 2022.3.4f1.
    Or is there any way I can solve this problem?

    Hi. Anyone having issues with the "weighted" handles? Right-click on a key and go to one of the Tangents and choose "weighted" as an option. On my end, it goes to weighted then immediately locks back to regular. I can move handles fine (even when broken), but I cannot weight the handles by pulling one farther than its opposite. I am using 2022.3.6f1 LTS currently. Thanks!
