# Markers, one-click look copying and 12 new transitions

> Timeline markers, copying a clip's look, slip, a cover with a title, your own sound fades, captions coloured by speaker and 12 new transitions.

## Timeline

-   ****Marker**** — a coloured note on the ruler: it moves with its clip, and clip edges and elements snap to markers. Keys M, Shift+M and Alt+M — on the web and on an iPad or Mac with a keyboard.
-   ****Copy look** and **Paste look**** — speed, sound, colour, effect, transition, animations, mask, background and framing from one clip to another or to all of them at once (⌥⌘C and ⌥⌘V).
-   ****Slip**** — pick a different part of the same source for a B-roll clip without changing its length or place in the reel.

## Picture and sound

-   ****Stabilize**** is stronger: two passes and a slight zoom instead of mirrored edges.
-   **A cover with a title** — styled like the hook or as a callout; **Cover as the first frame** — for networks where you can't pick a cover.
-   ****Fade in** and **Fade out**** for a clip's sound and for music.
-   ****Colour by speaker**** — captions of two speakers in different colours.

## 12 new transitions

Slides and wipes in all four directions, **Circle open** and circle close, zoom in, **Pixelate**, **Radial wipe** and **Noise dissolve**. The preview draws them the same way as the finished reel, on the web and in the app.

## AI director

The director edits with more restraint: clean cuts at natural speed, speech never sped up, no freeze frames, rare accents with an explanation. The three versions of a reel are ready sooner.

## Fixes

-   In the app the preview no longer starts by itself when you open the editor, cuts don't jump or show bits of the source during playback, and the timeline scrolls smoothly.
-   “None” for the music fade-in and fade-out now means no fade in the finished reel too.
