This method lets you keep the timeline still while adjusting your visuals, so you can align elements with exact on-screen moments.
💡 Why this works
This method gives you full control over your element’s position at a fixed moment in time—even without direct frame-by-frame controls on the canvas. It’s a great workaround when timing and placement really matter.
Insert the shape or media you want to edit into the scene and place it approximately where you want it to appear.
Click the Timeline tab at the bottom of the screen to switch to Timeline view.
Drag the playhead to the exact timestamp where you want to position the element.
Select the element from the timeline list. You cannot select it from the canvas for this type of precise adjustment.
Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move the element while keeping the timeline fixed on that timestamp.
