As your project grows, your timeline can get crowded fast. Video clips, audio layers, text, subtitles, and graphics can start to feel scattered and harder to manage.
That’s where Grouping comes in.
Grouping lets you combine multiple elements into one unit, so you can move and edit them together without losing control over the individual pieces inside.
What is grouping?
Grouping is a way to bundle multiple timeline elements into a single scene.
Instead of managing each clip one by one, you can group things like:
video
audio
images
text
graphics
Once grouped, those elements behave like one connected piece on your timeline.
Why use grouping?
Grouping helps keep your timeline cleaner and makes editing faster.
Here’s what it can help you do:
Keep related elements together so your video, audio, and graphics stay in sync
Edit faster by trimming, splitting, or duplicating a full scene at once
Make detailed changes inside the group without breaking the overall structure
Move and resize a full scene on the canvas as one unit
Stay organized with cleaner stacking and less timeline clutter
How to group elements
Open your project in the video editor.
Select the elements you want to group together, such as video, audio, text, or images.
Click Group from the drop down menu.
Your selected elements will now be bundled together as one group.
To ungroup, right click on the selected group and then click on Ungroup.
Once your group is created, you can move it around and work with it as a single piece.
Can I still edit the items inside a group?
Yes, grouping does not lock your content permanently. You can open the group and make changes to the individual elements inside whenever you need to. This makes it easier to stay organized without giving up flexibility.
💥Tips & Tricks💥
Group elements that belong to the same scene to keep your timeline easier to manage.
Use grouping before duplicating a scene so everything copies together.
If your timeline feels cluttered, grouping can help reduce visual mess and make navigation easier.
Open the group anytime you need to fine-tune one specific element inside it.
