Snap Editing makes clips and overlays magnetic in the timeline β€” when you drag or trim near a key point, they lock into place automatically. No more nudging frame by frame.

What it snaps to

When snapping is on, clips and overlays will snap to:
  • Start and end of main video segments
  • Start and end of layout blocks
  • Current playhead position
  • Start and end of other timeline layers

How to turn it on or off

Click the Snap Editing icon in the timeline toolbar, or press S on your keyboard to toggle it on or off anytime.

How it works

Drag any clip or overlay and it locks into alignment when it gets close enough to a snap point. The same applies when trimming β€” drag the left or right edge of any clip and it snaps to nearby alignment points. A vertical guideline appears across the timeline to confirm the snap.

FAQ

Is Snap Editing on by default?

Yes β€” it’s on by default. You can toggle it off anytime from the toolbar or by pressing S on your keyboard.
