What the scene timeline shows
The scene timeline sits at the top of the canvas. When you add an image or video to a shot, it appears in the timeline for that scene.
Manage shots inside a scene
From the scene timeline, you can:
- Drag shots to reorder them inside the scene
- Remove an image or video from a shot
- Delete the shot itself
- Open shot info for the selected shot
If you delete a shot, the underlying canvas asset does not disappear. Only the shot is removed from the scene.
Add shots quickly
Use the plus button at the end of a scene bar to add a single shot. If you need several shots at once, use the Add Multiple Shots workflow from the scene controls.
Work with scene-level controls
Right-click the scene title to open scene actions such as:
- Collapse scene
- Duplicate scene
- View scene details
Duplicating a scene keeps the shot count, but it does not duplicate the existing media into the new scene.
Use the timeline when you want to structure a story while staying in the creative canvas workflow. Switch to production views when you need heavier metadata and planning controls.
