Disabling tweening in Studio? Stop motion animation?

I haven't experimented with animation much in Studio over the many years, but I'm trying to do something different now and having a bit of trouble. Basically what I want to do is pose characters in one frame of animation, hold those poses for one frame (posed in frame 1, held in frame 2), and then have them instantly change to new poses in frame 3. Sometimes it works, but often times, changing the poses in frame 3 for example, will also alter the poses in the previous frames.

Could you tell me how, if possible, to disable tweening and accomplish this frame-by-frame editing without messing up previous frames as I go along? I assume it probably has something to do with key interpolation, but I've tried different settings without any luck. Thanks in advance.

    I believe setting the interpolation to linear should do it.

     

    It's in the bottom right of the timeline area, in a click box thing.

    Select the keys to set the interpolation type of, then set their interpolation type to constant

    Weird, I tried both and nothing really changed. I did some tests and what seems to work is manually adding a keyframe for the figure on the new frame before doing any posing. Switching to an empty frame and then having a keyframe be automatically added after making a posing change is what seems to cause trouble.

    I meant constant.  Sorry.
