Editing & workspace

Arrange panels and save layouts

Dock, group, float, resize, maximize, and restore your eight editing panels.

The eight panels#

Edit includes Project, Viewer, Inspector, Timeline, Titles, Captions, Effects, and Transitions. Tools have one home each; the Project sidebar contains Media, Sounds, Stickers, and Settings.

Move a panel#

  1. Grab its tab and drag it over another panel.
  2. Drop in the center to group the two panels as tabs.
  3. Drop on an edge to split that region.
  4. Drag the divider between regions to resize them.

The panel's ••• menu provides a Move panel selector as an alternative to dragging.

Float, maximize, and reopen#

Float panel detaches a panel inside the editor window, with handles for moving and resizing it. It does not create a separate operating-system window. Double-click a tab or use its maximize control to expand it; repeat the action or press Escape to restore it.

Close panel hides it from the current arrangement. Reopen it through Panels. Closing a panel does not remove its clips, captions, or effects.

Presets and saved workspaces#

Workspaces offers Editing, Captions, Effects, and Timeline presets. Save layout stores a named arrangement on this device; up to 12 named layouts are supported. The current arrangement persists between launches. Reset layout returns to the standard arrangement.

For a caption pass, put Captions beside the Viewer and keep the Timeline below. For detailed trimming, maximize the Timeline or use its preset. Layouts are device preferences, not a shared cloud workspace.
