Parking Lane Visibility

Previewing and organizing your alternative video clips has become much easier and faster through new features.

  • Instant Keyboard Preview: Hold down the P key on your keyboard to temporarily isolate, watch, and listen to only your parking lane clips.
  • Pasting onto Parking Lane: Press Cmd+Shift+V to paste your copied clips back-to-back directly into the parking lane right at your timeline playhead.

Text Overlay Improvements

Editing text overlays and captions is now much simpler and acts like standard typing tools.

  • Automatic Height Sizing: Text boxes now grow or shrink their height automatically to fit the text you write.
  • Double-Click to Fit: Double-clicking the right edge of a text box instantly snaps the border to your last letter. This changes the box so it automatically grows wider sideways as you keep typing, instead of forcing your text to jump to a new line. If you drag the edge manually, it automatically switches back so you can control the width yourself again.
