Hi,

 

I am a total beginner to AE.

 

I have 17.05 installed on a my pc.

 

I am trying to edit a template that I bought. I have still not heard from the creator of this template.

.

I seem to be missing the yellow timeline tracker on my Timeline workspace and so I can't edit any TextPaceholders.

Please see the screengrab image attached of my screen.

and below this is the what it should look like.

Please can you you show me how to enable the yellow slider?

Thanks

In the latest version of After Effects, the CTI  (current time indicator) is blue.

What tutorial are you trying to follow? I would be very warry of tutorials on YouTube. Most of the new ones are posted by enthusiasts that don't really know what they are talking about and even when they do, they are not well explained. Make sure you vet your trainers. I would suggest that you check the user guide tutorials: Learn AE

Hello Rick,

 

Thank you for your response.

 

The link you posted does not work.

 

The CTI is not visible at all on my AE, how do I activate it?
