### 👉 Video clips

Video clips can only be added to existing screenshot demos, allowing users to add and edit video clips right in Storylane.

#### 🎥  Adding video clips&#x20;

We support a couple of ways to add video clips:

1. Under Video Avatar in the editor header you can either -&#x20;
   1. Generate using your own Avatar (or choose from our templates!)
   2. Record a live video from your device
2. Upload mp4 files from device
3. Add video clips from the current & other demos
4. Capture new video clips from the extension

{% @storylane/embed subdomain="app" linkValue="dtri6lkogfmv" url="<https://app.storylane.io/share/dtri6lkogfmv>" %}

#### 🎬  Editing video clips

In the Storylane editor, control playback speed, trims, mute, and splices to insert guides between clips.

### 👉 Screen layout (cover, fit, and fill)

Screen layout helps you display images, screenshots, and demo screens of various sizes seamlessly within your demo, ensuring they fit perfectly regardless of their original dimensions. In the Demo Editor, Cover, Fit, and Fill are accessible from the left-side toolbar, and there are 4 options:

* **Cover**: expands the image to cover the entire demo area, slightly cropping the edges if necessary.
* **Fit**: Scales the content to fit the demo's width or height without cropping, adding padding to maintain the full view where necessary.
* **Fill** mode: The current logic when capturing demos, filling out the demo area.
* **Different aspect ratio**: When prompted, it lets you set the current screen’s aspect ratio as the default for your entire demo. This is useful if the current screen’s layout best fits your content, allowing all screens to align with this shape.

{% hint style="info" %}
TIP: For demos with both landscape and portrait images/screens, it’s best to set the aspect ratio to the landscape. This way, portrait images can fit within the wider frame more easily, while a portrait aspect ratio would cut off the sides of landscape images.
{% endhint %}

### 👉 Demo Frame

We offer a few options to customize the frame your demo sits in:&#x20;

* Choose between dark and light modes (toggle in top right of frame)
* Enable fullscreen mode by setting a frame color in Demo Settings&#x20;
