Action timeline
Panel 03
Action timeline
This is your editable cut. Every bar is a creative decision you can move, copy, color, and replay.
Select & preview an action
Click a bar to play from that moment and open its controls. Hover or focus a bar to see its action label and reveal the insert affordance. Command/Ctrl-click to select multiple actions for a grouped copy.
Add or insert an action
Use the plus at the end of the timeline to add an action, or hover an existing action and use the plus above it to insert after that point. The quick menu offers Camera, Angle, Light, Move character, Place character, Say line, and Sound. Choose Show all actions for the complete library.
Reorder the cut
Drag any action bar before or after another bar, or to the end. SceneFlow saves the new order as a scene version, making it safe to try a different rhythm.
Highlight filters
The highlight menu selects every action of a chosen type, from all Camera actions to all Wait actions. It is a fast way to audit one layer of the scene without losing the timeline context.
Copy & paste actions
Keep the pointer over the timeline and press Command/Ctrl+C with an active or multi-selected action. Hover or focus the action you want to paste after, then press Command/Ctrl+V. Pasted actions are independent clones and the scene is saved as a new version.
Preview and unsaved changes
Previewing an action does not save its edits. Choose Save action or Update action to commit them. If you try to leave an edited action, choose Keep editing to return to the draft or Discard changes to leave it. Save or discard the draft before exporting a video.
