Saving a scene
If you want to reuse your scene in a different story you can save it to your scenes. You can do this by clicking on the 3 dots in the scene tile in the scene list and click on save.
Saving a scene from a collaborated story
In a shared story, assets remain exclusively with the story owner and are never transferred to collaborators. While a collaborator can save a scene from the shared story, the assets within that scene are not copied to their media library. Both the collaborator and the owner can independently modify their versions of the saved scene, and changes made by one do not affect the other. However, if the story owner removes an asset from their media library, any saved scenes using that asset will be impacted—resulting in the asset no longer being visible.
In summary, repositioning or removing assets within a scene does not affect other saved scenes, but deleting an asset from the media library does.
Set order of your scenes
To determine the correct order of the scenes you can easily drag and drop them.
Deleting a scene
Deleting a scene is as easy as clicking on the 3 dots in the scene tile and click on the trash can. Or just press delete/backspace.
There is a limit of 100 scenes per story with a maximum of 75 assets per scene. This is to limit performance issues that may arise when using a lot of content.
