Locate timed objects in videos
Last updated on
Oct 21, 2024
Identify and adjust the placement of objects in a video.
You can easily identify objects in a video, such as design elements, text, and images, and adjust the placement of these objects using the timing indicator dots that appear above your timeline.
Before you begin:
Upload a video to Adobe Express or browse through Adobe Stock videos and open a video in the editor. Add text, elements, and more to the video and adjust the layer timing of these objects in a video scene.
-
-
Select the thumbnail to pull up the layer timeline.
-
Drag the trim handles to shorten or lengthen the duration of the object in your video.
Tip:
Drag the trim handle and adjust it to the same start or end point as another layer in your video if you want objects to appear together in a video clip.
