I need help with animation

I'm using Anime Studio 5. I've got a scene planned, but I want an image object to simpy appear in frame #36. I don't want to move it from off screen, zoom it in, or otherwise. I simply want it to appear from nowhere. Any ideas on how to do this?

Select the layer the object is on (it should preferably be on its own layer)

See the eye channel in the timeline? Click it on frame 1. In AS5 this should make the timeline go pink. Your object is now invisible. At frame 36, click in the timeline in line with the eye channel. It should set a keyframe with no pink after that. This means that the layer is now visible.

If the eye channel isn't visible go to DISPLAY SETTINGS (or something like that) near the bottom-right. Check the EYE channel so that it shows up.
