Move the current-time indicator to a keyframe
After you
set the initial keyframe for a property, After Effects displays
the keyframe navigator, which you can use to move from keyframe
to keyframe or to set or remove keyframes. When the keyframe navigator
box is filled with a yellow diamond 
, the
current-time indicator lies precisely at a keyframe for that layer
property. When the keyframe navigator box is not filled 
, the
current-time indicator lies between keyframes.
To
detach the keyframe navigator from the A/V Features column to function
as its own column, choose Column > Keys from the Timeline
panel menu.
