Updated 30 August 2026

Create an edited version, set an aspect ratio, and choose the still used to represent a video.

Step by step

From the selected asset in Media, open the edit or crop action.
Select the aspect preset and crop mode appropriate for the intended post type or platform.
Apply supported crop, transform, adjustment, or timeline edits, then save the export as a new media result.
For video, capture or choose the supported frame or uploaded cover in Media or the relevant platform settings in Publish.
The edited asset remains connected to the content piece and the chosen preview or cover is available where supported.

If something goes wrong

  • Keep the original version so another target can use a different aspect ratio.
