You can crop and reframe your video footage in Capsule to adjust the framing, scale, or position of your clips.
Open Clip Settings
Click the clip you want to crop in the timeline at the bottom of the page.
The clip’s settings will appear in the right-side panel.
Under Scale, you’ll see multiple options for reframing and cropping.
Fit vs. Fill
Fit: The clip will appear fully within the frame. No footage is cropped.
Fill: The clip will expand to cover the entire frame. Parts of the footage may be cropped.
This is the fastest way to adjust position and scale.
Move Clip Position
You can fine-tune clip placement by adjusting X and Y values:
X = negative number moves left, positive number moves right.
Y = negative number moves up, positive number moves down.
Example: X = -10 and Y = 10 moves the video 10 spaces left and 10 spaces down, closer to the bottom-left corner of the canvas.
Adjust Zoom
Set above 100% to zoom in (cropped view).
Set below 100% to zoom out (background may be visible).
Save Changes
Click the checkmark to save your edits.
Click the X to discard changes.
✅ Tip: Use Fit for full-frame clarity, Fill for edge-to-edge coverage, and custom X/Y values when you need precise framing.
