Y position is keyframed when only X is moved

I have this layer with Separated Dimensions

The Y is animated with keyframes. The X has no keyframes.

When I move the layer in the X direction (with shift pressed, so constrained - Y is not changed),

Y gets a keyframe, while it shouldn't, because the value is not changed.

Please respect Separated Dimensions when repositionin in one direction. Only add a keyframe when the value of a keyframed track changes.

I'm not able to repro that behavior on my side. Would you mind sharing a screen recording of what you're seeing?

Thanks,

That is interesting.

It's the clicking action on the layer that creates the keyframe.

Even if you don't move it a keyframe is automatically created.

The work around to avoid it is to use the scrubbing function of the Position property.

Just hover over the value and click and drag with your cursor.
