The canvas is the central visual panel where you preview and edit your video.
It shows what your video looks like at the current moment and lets you adjust assets directly—like moving, resizing, or rotating them.
What the canvas shows
The canvas displays the visual output of your video at the current point in time.
As you play through your video or scrub in the timeline, the canvas updates to show whichever assets are visible at that moment. This makes it easy to preview how layers, timing, and positioning work together in the final result.
Working with assets on the canvas
The canvas is designed for direct manipulation. Instead of editing everything through panels alone, you can select visible assets and adjust them in place.
Depending on the asset, you can:
move it to a new position
resize it using transform handles
rotate it
visually arrange it relative to other assets
This makes the canvas the fastest place to make spatial edits and fine-tune layout.
Canvas and layering
The canvas reflects the stacking order of assets in your video. Assets that are visually on top will appear in front of assets below them. You can edit the stacking order of assets in the timeline.
