Description

System Information
Operating system: Linux-5.19.10-1-default-x86_64-with-glibc2.33 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 515.65.01

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.2.0, caused by rB4e57b6ce77b1: Animation: Sensible frame range for motion paths
Worked: (3.1)

Short description of error
If there is already a motion path, editing its frame range and then clicking "Update" overwrites those edits.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  • Open attached .blend file
  • In the Properties editor, go to Object Properties → Motion Paths and change the Frame End value to 30
  • Click Update Paths
  • See that the end frame jumps back to 250.

For now the best option would be to select the keys you want the range to update for so it updates around that range. I do agree that the option to use the set range instead of always use scene frame range to update isn't ideal. The other options should be there + use the range settings from the Motion Path Panel.

I agree this is an issue, but I did remove the drama from the description.
