Composition Features The Composition Editor allows you to combine artwork along with new props from DO Ink prop library (great for new users). There are 4 primary areas in the Composition Editor: The Upper Toolbar, Canvas, Lower Toolbar and Timeline. Additional features are listed below. 1. Select to open the Chooser. This holds your gallery options. 2. View props from the Animation Gallery. 3. Add photos from the camera roll. 4. Add text. 5. to view a larger editor or to view smaller. 6.

The app automatically sets the start and stop time for the duration of a clip but this can be adjusted.
