Editor overview

The Editor is a non-linear timeline editor built on a dockable panel system. Multi-track video and audio, cross-fades, markers, a preview player with video-aware playback, and a Library panel that doubles as an asset browser and a reference drag source. This is where you cut the final video.

What the Editor is

If Scene Mode is a script-to-video engine, the Editor is the NLE (non-linear editor) that sits on top of it. Every clip you see on the timeline is a reference to an Asset in the Library. Every edit you make is non-destructive: trimming a clip does not touch the source asset.

The Editor supports:

Multi-track video, audio, and overlay tracks.
Cross-fades, fade-in, fade-out, and custom transition curves.
Clip trimming, splitting, copying, pasting, duplicating, nudging.
Colored markers, loop IN/OUT regions, named timecode labels.
Snapping, zoom (0.05x to 8x), playhead drag.
A Library panel with folders, search, drag-to-timeline.
A dockable panel layout that remembers your arrangement.
A preview player that understands scene video placement.
Recording the timeline as a WebM video via the preview player.

How to reach it

Three entry points:

From Scene Mode, click Import to Timeline. See Importing to the editor.
From the storyboard subnav, switch from Scene Mode to Editor.
From a new storyboard, append ?mode=editor to the create URL to skip Scene Mode.
