Editing ScreenFlow Projects
Using Nested Clips
When you add an action to a clip, it displays as a bright yellow rectangle.
Sometimes, you may want to set a pair of actions—one at the beginning and one at the
end of a clip. You can also set any number of actions in between.

Adding an Action
To add an action, select the clip and set the scrubber to the time you want the action to
start (Figure 39).
Then, choose from these options:
• Display the property pane (top-right) of the type that you want to add, then click
the Add Action button at the bottom of the property pane.
• Select Actions > Add Video Action | Add Audio Action | Add Screen Recording
Action | Add Callout
The action is placed in relation to the position of the scrubber, but can be moved to any
location on the clip.

The duration of the action is changed by dragging the edge of the action to lengthen
or shorten it.
Configuring Actions
Place the scrubber at the start or end of the action to make changes to the property
relative to the action. If the scrubber is placed at the start of the action, this sets the
properties of the clip before the action. If the scrubber is placed at the end the action,
this sets the properties of the clip after the action.

Using Nested Clips
At some point in the editing process, you may find that your project—after adding
more and more clips—is becoming unmanageable. The solution: create nested clips.
