Hello,

I have a frustrating problem or a lack of know-how, and I have never seen something like this only in After Effetcs 2017. The thing when I use keyframes to key position, for some reason After Effects adds an oposite moving curve, and there is no point to remove it... Can somebody please tell me am I doing something wrong or maybe if this is an error, is there a way to avoid it?

PS

If I delete all existing points and try to create new, I still get this problem...

one of Ae's oddities that is refereed to as "The Boomerang Effect". watch this: AE Keyframe Boomerang Effect, Part 1 - YouTube

to fix it: you can highlight both keyframes where this movement occurs between and right click on one of them->keyframe interpolation (or Ctrl+Alt+K) and choose under spatial interpolation->linear.

to avoid it: make sure you set your preferences to default spatial interpolation to linear and avoid 95% of the chances this will happen again:
