Click here to read the article on [Accessing the latest version of VideoScribe](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accessing-videoscribe?hsLang=en). --- **Note:** This method will only merge the elements from the timeline. Settings such as the voiceover, soundtrack and canvas texture/colour will not be moved. Your merged scribe will retain the settings of the second project. **Top tip:** If you would prefer not to merge your projects in VideoScribe you could [publish both of your projects](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/publish-and-share-scribes?hsLang=en) and then use video editing software to combine them. #### **Step 1. Select the first project you would like to merge from the project screen (A)** - On clicking, the scribe it will open immediately on the canvas. ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037352original2-Tu_sOyWRLjdUvrRbVOjnJEnfg_ADU_tw.jpg) #### **Step 2. Select all the items in your project (B)** - To do this use Ctrl+A on a Windows PC or Command+A on a Mac. - Now they are all highlighted click the copy button **(C)**. ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037384originalzChscaVGiKB_1XUOQKSl_IDjf7ax9yvJdA.jpg) #### **Step 3. Exit your scribe using the back arrow (D)** ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037434originalrTlYX2d49nrOD-I_ISHXeCxgePR-tVFfWg.jpg) - You will be asked if you want to save the changes you have made and you can click 'Save and Close' to save **(E)** or click 'Close Without Saving' **(F)** if you do not want to save. ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037501originalHeMg4LMlfMOCOGgoNDjl1Oz7C_3qM2kdrg.jpg) #### **Step 4. Select the second project** - Back on the project screen select the second project you would like to merge **(G)**.  - On clicking, the scribe it will open immediately on the canvas. ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037567original5olwNVs75J0AikyAir7SVePhEgouWARvQA.jpg) #### **Step 5. Select the last element and paste your copied images from the first project into the second project (H)** - It is likely that your images will be pasted over the top of each other… don’t worry step 6 will show you how to fix this.  ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021037611original6uhX6KpnrABpHYjnNgsiDm8qkVNZlw6odw.jpg) #### **Step 6. Select the elements you have just pasted ** - Hold down Ctrl (Windows PC) or Command (Mac) and click on the images in the timeline **(I)**. - Once they are all selected you can drag them to an empty area of the canvas using the mouse, the arrow icons **(J)** or the arrow keys on your computer keyboard. If using your keyboard arrow keys to move the elements, holding shift and an arrow key will make them move more quickly.  - At this point we would recommend that you preview your scribe **(K)** as you have moved items around the canvas and you may need to [reset your camera positions](https://5474140.hs-sites.com/knowledge/use-zoom-and-set-the-camera?hsLang=en).  - You will also notice that the pasted elements are all set to 'Draw'. If any of the elements were originally set to '[Move-in](https://5474140.hs-sites.com/knowledge/move-in?hsLang=en)', '[Fade-in](https://5474140.hs-sites.com/knowledge/fade-in-and-fade-out?hsLang=en)' or '[Morph](https://5474140.hs-sites.com/knowledge/morph-images?hsLang=en)' you will need to change those back. ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021345361originalTPKf7LU0mM6WzV-hSFBnZF9_9LAChrrW6A.jpg) #### **Step 7. Once you are happy with the placement of your merged images and camera positions you can save your work** - If you want to save this as a new project just simply change the scribe name **(L)** before clicking the tick **(M)** to complete the save.  ![](https://help.videoscribe.co/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11021038043originalYPQv95SjRGjpALa0p-wD1Xc2BSHlP7Xqsw.jpg) - [VideoScribe](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#main-content) - [VideoScribe tutorials](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#videoscribe-tutorials) - [How to access VideoScribe](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#how-to-access-videoscribe) - [Start a new project](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#start-a-new-project) - [Images, text and fonts](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#images-text-and-fonts) - [Animations and transitions](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#animations-and-transitions) - [Audio](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#audio) - [AI tools](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#ai-tools) - [Publishing](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#publishing) - [Fix a problem](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe?hsLang=en#fix-a-problem) - [Accounts & Billing](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accounts-billing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Managing your account](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accounts-billing?hsLang=en#managing-your-account) - [Subscriptions and payments](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accounts-billing?hsLang=en#subscriptions-and-payments) - [Business subscriptions](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accounts-billing?hsLang=en#business-subscriptions) - [Partnering with Sparkol](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/accounts-billing?hsLang=en#partnering-with-sparkol) - [VideoScribe Legacy](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Switching to the new version](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#switching-to-the-new-version) - [VideoScribe Legacy tutorials](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#videoscribe-legacy-tutorials) - [How to access VideoScribe Legacy](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#how-to-access-videoscribe-legacy) - [Start a new project](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#start-a-new-project) - [Images, text and fonts](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#images-text-and-fonts) - [Animations and transitions](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#animations-and-transitions) - [Audio](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#audio) - [Saving your scribe](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#saving-your-scribe) - [Publishing](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#publishing) - [Tips and techniques](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#tips-and-techniques) - [Fix a problem](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge/videoscribe-legacy?hsLang=en#fix-a-problem) - Company - [About us](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/about/) - [Using VideoScribe](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/using-videoscribe/) - [Help and Support](https://help.videoscribe.co/knowledge) - [Pricing](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/pricing/) - [VideoScribe Legacy](https://www.videoscribe.co/videoscribe-legacy) - [Security](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/security/) - [VideoScribe by Sparkol](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/who-is-sparkol/) - Partners - [Affiliates](https://ui.awin.com/merchant-profile-terms/18708) - [Resellers](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/resellers/) - Legals - [Terms of use](http://www.sparkol.com/legal) - [Privacy policy](https://www.sparkol.com/privacy) - [Cookies](https://www.sparkol.com/cookies) - Inspiration - [Templates](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/templates/) - [Our blog](https://blog.videoscribe.co/) - [Academy](https://www.videoscribe.co/en/our-academy/) [![Sparkol logo white](https://help.videoscribe.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Sparkol%20logo%20white.png?width=150&height=46&name=Sparkol%20logo%20white.png "Sparkol logo white")](https://www.sparkol.com) © 2026 Sparkol Group | [The legal stuff](https://www.sparkol.com/en/Legal?__hstc=174690109.e81b74581590d7ec757bf8830ea9febd.1750923465415.1761217903465.1761218047176.1700&__hssc=174690109.6.1761218047176&__hsfp=631938017)
