Editing Dimensions

To access these options, in Editor click the Editing Dimensions icon on the Preview Window or choose

View menu > Project > Editing Dimensions.

Editing Dimensions Overview

The Editing Dimensions dialog box appears the first time you add a clip to the timeline. The editing dimensions

allow you to edit your video at the size you want your final video to be.

For the best results, select editing dimensions that match the size you want your final video to be.

For full screen recordings or recordings made from standard or wide screen presets, the default setting

works best.

To change the editing dimensions to a standard size preset, click on the dimensions and choose the

preset from the menu.

To enter a custom width and height for the editing dimensions, enter dimensions (in pixels) into the

Width and Height fields.

Editing dimensions of at least 640 x 480 are required for any video that will have a table of contents

(TOC) or quiz.

Choose editing dimensions smaller than the original recording to automatically add SmartFocus zoom

animations to the timeline.
