If you've selected Position from the Animate menu, you can adjust the X and Y location of whatever characters are isolated by the Range Selector. You can do this by adjusting the Position property (in the Animator 1 property group, not the Transform property group), or you can drag the isolated characters directly into the Comp window. To do this, you must have the Position property (in the Animator 1 group ) selected in the Timeline. Drag characters using the Selection tool, not the Type tool.
