Templates

What is in it

Named fields

A template field is a named, typed, addressable write target — text, colour, number or media — rather than a note about which layer to edit.

Media slots

Drop a still, a video, an image sequence or a whole composition into a slot, with a fit policy. A masked slot uses Cover, because a letterboxed fill inside a mask reads as a bug.

Protected time regions

Mark the parts of the timing that must survive a retime, with a marking UI for setting them.

Fill from a data table

Point a CSV at the fields and apply a row: forty lower-thirds from forty rows. One row is one undo entry, not one per field.

Honest refusalsLimited

Duplicate and blank headers are refused rather than resolved, a blank numeric cell means no value rather than zero, and media columns are reported as skipped so the limit is visible.
