Keep a guide and its video together
Each step says where it plays in the video as you edited it. The guide’s web page can link each step there, and the video can take its chapters from the guide.

Where each step is in the video#
Beside a step’s title, a tag like 0:35 in the video says where that step plays in the video after your trims, cuts, speed changes and moved pieces. Press it to open the video editor at that moment.
A step whose moment you cut from the video says Not in the video, and stays in the guide. On the guide’s timeline, what the video leaves out is hatched, as on the video’s own timeline.
Link each step to the video#
- 1Put the video where people watch it: YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, or a file on your site.
- 2In Simple, paste its address under Document, in Video link.In Pro, it is under Web page.
- 3Download the guide as a Web page or Markdown, or press Copy.
Each step the video shows gets a link, like In the video at 0:35, that plays from that second.
Chapters for the video#
When the whole video is exported and it has a guide, the finished screen offers Copy chapters: one line a chapter, like 0:00 Sign in, ready for a YouTube description. Chapters start where the guide’s sections start, or its steps in a guide of one page.
