Overview

When you select a video or image layer on the timeline, its panel opens on the right with three tabs:
  • Settings: layout, crop, volume, speed, and enter or exit animations.
  • Style: filters, corner radius, brightness, and padding.
  • AI: Green Screen Removal.
This guide covers cropping and the Style tab.

​
Crop A Layer

1

In the editor, click the video or image on the timeline.
2

Turn on Crop

On the Settings tab, switch on Crop.

​
Style A Layer

Open the Style tab to change how the layer looks:
Rounded corners with padding work well for picture-in-picture layouts and screen recordings placed over a colored background.

Layout Effects

The Layout menu on the Settings tab lets you choose how the segment is framed. It also includes 3D Layout Effects for a tilted, three-dimensional look. See How can I change the clip layout? for the standard layouts.
