One click to align elements

What's new: We've added a single Tidy button in the editor. It auto-aligns and evenly distributes selected items (horizontal or vertical) and left-aligns text (perfect for bullet lists).

Why it's important:

  • One click for cleanup.
  • Less chaos on the scene; no manual adjustments.

Copy the video script to reuse it

What's new: You can now copy the entire video script in one go and paste it anywhere.

Why it's important:

  • Smooth hand-offs for reviews, translations, and rewrites.
  • Faster editing outside the app; fewer copy/paste misses.

Hide and lock layers in the Timeline

What's new: Hover any layer in the Timeline to hide it or lock it instantly. This matches what you expect in any video editor.

Why it's important:

  • Declutter complex scenes by hiding what you don't need.
  • Protect finished elements from accidental edits.
