Export resolutionFrame rate

Resolution applies to PNG and WebM. Video export runs in approximately real time and requires browser MediaRecorder and canvas recording support. WebM availability depends on the browser. Transparent overlay PNG contains only the animated strokes at the current playhead—not the text.

Frequently asked questions

Can I highlight text across multiple lines?

Yes. The studio segments each animation across the selected wrapped lines. Long text may need smaller font sizing.

Does it require AI, a subscription, or uploading files?

No. Animations are generated deterministically by the browser's canvas engine. No remote processing is needed.

Can I edit my animation later?

Save the project as JSON and reopen it in the studio. The project includes text, scene settings and all animation cues.

Why is video export unavailable in some browsers?

Video recording requires canvas capture and a browser-supported MediaRecorder codec. Use PNG or save the project when your browser lacks WebM encoding.
