So, I'm beginning to experiment with cartoon animator 4 and I've noticed that every time I try to move any object, a Transform is created. Initially I didn't know what these little lines were until I started to watch my animations back and all of my objects were slowly moving all over the place. I've tried to move these objects without creating a transform and I can't figure it out. To move an object, I highlight it by left clicking on it. I then left click again but hold my finger down on the left clicker of the mouse and drag the object. I have tried a multitude of different ways to try and move an object without creating a transform but can't get an object to move at all if I don't drag it with the left clicker of the mouse.


How the heck do I move an object without creating a Transform? It's annoying me that I cant figure it out.

Start from Frame 1 to place your items

As Vidi already advised, just position all your characters and props while the timeline is at frame 1.

Thanks guys. I really appreciate the quick responses. So just to experiment, I started a new project and placed all of my items in frame 1. Worked just like you said it would.

However, in the initial project, even when I place the timeline back to frame one, I'm still having to deal with the transforms. Is there a way to amend this or am I going to have to start again?

Try to right-click and choose 'Remove Object Animation' which will clear all the animations applied to the character/prop.
