Learn how to enable clips, images, text elements, and the playhead to automatically snap to the nearest timeline marker as you drag them.

When editing a video, it is important to ensure that clips, images, text elements, and the playhead automatically snap or stick to the nearest timeline marker as you drag them. This helps avoid small gaps between layers in the timeline or accidental overlaps between clips.

Snap mode allows you to use this capability of snapping video elements to the nearest point on the timeline, making precise placement easier.

Upload your media files and then add them to the timeline.

To enable Snap mode, select the Snap   icon located below the preview panel. Alternatively, you can go to the Menu in the upper-left corner of the page and select Timeline > Snap mode.

A video has been added to the timeline, and above it, the Snap mode icon is selected to activate it.
Use Snap mode to make sure video elements align precisely with key points on the timeline.

Once the mode is enabled, moving layers in the timeline or dragging the playhead causes them to snap to the nearest timeline point.
