Anchor point issues

Before my problem has accured I could simply drag the anchor point to track an item frame by frame. After I went to he shortcut keys display by pressing ctrl+alt+k, I could no longer drag the anchor point without moving the postion coordinates. If there is anyway to make it so I can drag the anchor point without pressing ALT (moving the frame) or CTRL (snapping the anchor point back to the center) I'd be the happiest camper alive. If you have any suggestions please feel free to comment, anything helps!

Hi @Stick23,

I read your message. You want visual control over the Anchor Point after adding a keyframe. Is that correct? If so, click on the word "Motion" in the Effect Controls panel and the Anchor Point icon should return. See if that works for you. Let us know.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello @Kevin-Monahan ,

Sadly this did not resolve my issue. I put a video showing what is happening (The first clip shows the anchor point coordinates moving while the position coordinates aren't, the second clip shows the current situation im in)

Hi,

OK, I see what you are trying to do now.

 

I don't think you can visually adjust the Anchor Point for keyframing without affecting Position. You need to use the parameters directly in the Effect Controls panel. The same holds true in After Effects. Sorry for the frustration.

 

Thanks,
Kevin
