    Animation in Adobe Express is only done through presets. You can have a fully manual experience with After effects for example, which is a professional software. Adobe Express, in regards to animation, is more a simpler app for posting on social media etc...

    Can you post a screenshot? (or a video, if it is one)
    Generally moving an element is done with the mouse (dragging), and changing its size is done with clicking on it once to have the sizing handles appear, and then you can drag the handles to resize.

    If you’re talking about animating elements (change size over time), check that:
