====== Editing Mode ======

**Editing Mode** allows you to create a **visualization sequence**
of the project by using different plans or print areas
at different moments of the phasing.

It makes it possible to prepare a **project animation video**
by defining the framing and the transitions between views.

-----

===== Accessing Editing Mode =====

In the **Live View** window, click the
**Editing Mode** button located on the left side of the interface.

Editing Mode allows you to define a **sequence of views**
that will be used to generate the visualization.

-----

===== Adding a plan or a print area =====

To add a view to the sequence:

  - click **Add print area**
  - choose the **plan** or the **print area**

The selected view is then added to the sequence.

Each view can then be configured individually.

You can modify:

  * the **start date**
  * the **end date**
  * the **display duration**

-----

===== Configuring views =====

Each plan added to the sequence can be adjusted.

To modify its parameters:

  - click on the corresponding view
  - modify the **dates** or the **duration**

This allows you to build a **visual narrative of the project**
based on the different construction phases.

-----

===== Adding a transition =====

**Transitions** can be defined between two views.

To do this:

  - click on a view in the sequence

You can then configure:

  * the **transition before**
  * the **transition after**

If a view is preceded or followed by another,
the corresponding transitions will appear.

The duration of the transition can be adjusted
by moving the **transition slider**.

-----

===== Exporting the video =====

Once the sequence has been defined,
the visualization can be exported as a **video**.

To do this:

  - click **Export video**
  - click **Start**

You can define:

  * the **video name**
  * the **save location**
  * the **video quality**

<note>
The higher the selected quality,
the larger the resulting video file will be.
