I'm using file referencing for a project in which many objects have to animate so that the animators and the lighters can work on their respective parts simulaneously. The thing is, when the object is referenced in, Maya will not allow me to slip the keyframes to line up with changes in the camera.

Does anyone know of a way around this so I don't have to go back to the reference every time I want to slip the keys by a few frames?

Thanks.
