Graph Editor - Viewing selected objects in graph editor

Hi there, new to Maya and animation in general, so please excuse the "simplicity" of the question.

 

I'm following a tutorial on how to animate planets rotating around a sun. Currently I'm at the point where I have created a group for each planet orbiting the sun (Planet plus respective moons, asteroid belts and so on...) and created 2 keyframes for each planet where I make it rotate around the sun by about 30°. I then selected the first group and opened the graph editor to make the animation infinite (so it rotates around the sun on and on and on... for as long as I have frames). However: Upon selecting the second group (with the second planet) and opening the graph editor I still only see the first group. 

My question in short is: How do I view specific objects and/or groups that I have created in the graph editor?

 

Thank you in advance for taking the time to reply 🙂

Hi!

 

Graph Editor -> List ->

A) Auto Load Selected Objects (check), or

B) Load Selected Objects, or

C) Add Selected Objects

Thank you so much! Smiley Very Happy This worked for me (after restarting Maya which I probably should have done a long time ago).
