Editor Workspace
Understand the Studio workspace, editor modes, scene list, canvas, and project controls
Studio keeps the main MP5 editing surfaces on one screen: project actions at the top, scene navigation on the left, connectors or tools beside the scene list, the live canvas in the center, scene properties on the right, and timeline controls at the bottom.
Workspace Areas
Project bar contains undo, redo, interaction mode, Flow Map, Data, Save Project, View Draft, Publish, and menu controls.
Scene list shows every scene in the project, including duplicates and alternate routing scenes.
Canvas previews the current scene in the viewer frame.
Connector panel lists editable connections in Connect mode.
Scene properties exposes scene-level size, duration, colors, and assets.
Timeline controls layer timing and frame-level sequencing.
Interaction Modes
View mode is used to inspect the MP5 experience without editing connector mappings. It keeps the canvas prominent and supports playback-oriented review.
Design mode exposes canvas tools, scene properties, colors, assets, and timeline controls. Use it to adjust visual composition, scene settings, and layer timing.
Connect mode focuses on the relationship between the creative layers and the data that drives them. Text, layer hide, color, and media connectors appear in the connector list with their current mapped values.
Changing modes changes the editing surface, not the project delivery state. Save Project is used when edits need to be stored.
