Timelapse

You can use Clip Studio Paint to record a timelapse of your project being created on the canvas.

Record timelapse

You can set up timelapse recording when creating your canvas from the New dialog. Timelapses can be set to Prioritize quality or Prioritize file size.

·When set to Prioritize quality, the content will be recorded to prioritize the quality of the timelapse video. As the timelapse data is saved as part of your work file, the longer the timelapse is on, the larger the file size will become.

·When set to Prioritize file size, the content will be recorded while keeping the file size small. The quality of the timelapse video may go down.

·If set to Off, no timelapse will be recorded.

The timelapse data and settings are saved as part of the Clip Studio format file (extension: clip). Save your work and the timelapse recording will start again the next time you open Clip Studio Paint to continue working.

Start recording midway

Select File > Timelapse > Record timelapse to start recording a timelapse. If there is a check mark visible before the Record timelapse menu option, it means that the timelapse is already recording. Timelapses started from the File menu will be set to Prioritize quality by default.

You can also turn on timelapse recording or change the timelapse settings from the Edit menu > Canvas Properties or the Story menu > Change page settings and Change project settings dialogs.

Delete a timelapse recording
