New writer! Overlay help?

Hey! I’m pretty new here and I can’t seem to figure out overlays in general. I want to have my MC hold a piece of paper in her hand, but can’t figure out how to create and place overlays. Could anyone please help me? Thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

If you want her to hold a piece of paper you do not need overlays for that. There are this things called props, for example theres props of books, paper, guns

It sounds silly, but how do I get her to stop holding it the paper after it is done?
