Learn how to fine-tune an element's position—like a shape or image—at a precise timestamp in your video with a simple manual workaround. This method lets you keep the timeline still while adjusting your visuals, so you can align elements with exact on-screen moments.
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
Note: 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.
Notes:
This is a workaround. Since you can’t currently position elements frame-by-frame directly on the canvas, this method lets you adjust placement while the timeline is fixed on a specific timestamp using the arrow keys.
