Red anchor point
Hi,
I need to put the anchor point in the middle of a text, using the pan behind tool.
It had never been a problem until now.All of a sudden I see that the grey anchor point is hidden behind a red anchor point, and when I move it, I move both the grey and the red anchor point simulatenously. And when I try the place the anchor point the middle of the text, it actually crops the text.
Could someone please tell me what is going on?
thanks,

Can you show a screenshot with your entire UI showing what you’re seeing? I’m having some trouble visualizing the problem you’re having.

Do you have a mask applied to the layer? It sounds like maybe a mask vertex and the anchor point are in the same place? Maybe??

It’s even easier in Ae CC 12.1 and higher, where there’s a “Center Anchor Point in Layer Content” command in the Layer > Transform menu.
Shortcut: Ctrl+Alt+Home (PC) or Cmd+Opt+Home (Mac).
