Simply asking for a good lisibility in dopesheet-timeline.

This one is really important, as it concerns the health of animators, working 8-10 hours a day 002-DopeSheetLisibility.png on the screen. It would help animators having less headaches in the evening and to save their Eyes for their future. Just by simply color-structuring those white-yellow dots,selecting them will become comfortable.

Every other keyframe animation editor (dopesheet, action, etc) has that, so I think it was unintentional.

Made a PR to fix it projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/105041

Thanks Pablo 4forwarding this issue, I did saw the video! It would really be nice also if we, animators can easily differentiate our Location-Rotation-Scale channels-keys in 3 different 'groups', as I showed in the picture above for the concerned editors. Actually these 9 channels have the same color.

The problem with that is that those channels are not grouped in any way, you can move channels individually up and down (PageUp, PageDown). So internally Blender doesn't know they are related, they are just channels.

Approve a lot this idea. If you want, take a look to a proposal I made for Timeline and Dopesheet, also meant to help visibility. blender.community/c/rightclickselect/KQEY/ Let me know your opinion!
