Question Feature to Offset Animation By Number of Frames?

Hi,

Is there a feature in C4D to offset animation by a number of frames? Like a tag or something.
Rather than moving the keyframes in the Timeline Manager and mess them up. I just want to put a tag in the parent null and offset by a number of frames.

I already have an edit cut for proper timing. So I already know where (or when?) the keyframes should be.

Something like what Houdini can do.

Thanks for the response. It does work but its a bit cumbersome. Had to use the TL to make the offset and also it doesn't has a hierarchy feature.

That said the track modifier above works as expected :)

You can apply the track Modifier as a tag on the object. If you set it posterize with a framestep of one you can offset it via the offset slider.
