    Hi, in previous versions of AE, it was super easy to use the Anchor Point tool to move the anchor around on a layer. In the new version, if the layer is 3D (annoying XYZ axis obscures the anchor) it is EXTRMELY hard to click and drag that anchor point. Is there some trick I’m missing here or did AE make itself harder to use yet again?

    I’m not sure but I find it much easier to select now that they have added the axis.

    Just grab any of the points and move.

    Maybe its my Maya background that helps this along.
