What can you select and revise inside a video preview?

Selection depends on how the edit was built. Exposed titles or graphics may be editable, while an object inside a flattened clip may not be a separate layer.

Start with a clear direction

Check what the preview exposes before describing a targeted change. When the element is part of the source footage, describe the broader revision or provide another source.

Put it into your edit

Open your edit and find the moment you want to change. Describe the new result in the revision chat. Select an editable element when the preview offers it, and include exact replacement wording for text changes.

An instruction to make your own

Use this direction for my video: Check what the preview exposes before describing a targeted change. When the element is part of the source footage, describe the broader revision or provide another source. Do not promise that every visible object can be independently recolored, moved or removed.

Check the detail that matters

Do not promise that every visible object can be independently recolored, moved or removed.

Keep the next change focused

Name the moment, say what should change and describe what you want to keep. For a title, supply the replacement words. For pacing, identify the shot that needs more or less time. Play the surrounding sequence after the revision to hear and see how the change fits.
