  • Why is Position Reset sending item far out of frame?

    Lead-In:
    Dumb question.

    I have a shape layer. When I click “Reset” on the Transform property, it resets to 960/540. This is expected.

    The weird part is that this Reset doesn’t bring my layer into the Composition Frame. To bring it into my Composition Frame, I need to drag it to -3448/-4004.

    The “Reset” to 960/540 sends my layer way out of frame. Screenshot of Comp Viewer below.

    I would like to be able to understand more about why this happens. Can anyone please direct me on what basics I need to read up to understand this more?

    Again, dumb question, I know. I tried to search for an answer to this, but couldn’t find related issues.

    Show a screenshot of your entire Composition panel and a screenshot of your shape layer in the Timeline panel.
