Guide

Library Window

In the library panel, you can search for stock videos, images, etc., provided by VideoStew and load them onto the stage. The elements are organized into tabs like "Recent", "Favorites", "User", and "Stock".

Recent

Here is a list of elements you've used recently.

Favorites

Frequently used elements can be saved to Favorites, and added to the Favorites list. After hovering the mouse over an element, click the settings (▼) button to add it to Favorites.

User

This is the live library of elements uploaded directly by the user. You can add images or video files by dragging them onto the screen from the explorer or by clicking the [Upload](/guide/edit/basic/narration/upload) button. (If you drag and drop files into the live Library Window, they are not entered on the stage but only added to the list.) Additionally, the user tab allows you to find uploaded resources more easily through category classification. Category|Description --|-- All|Shows all resources uploaded by users Upload|Shows only the resources that were uploaded by clicking the upload button Paste|Shows only the images that were copied & pasted from the web Drag-and-Drop|Shows only the elements that were uploaded by drag and drop from the computer's file explorer Using the above classification can make file management more convenient. For example, frequently used resources can be added through the "Upload" button or by setting your own rules.
Delete uploaded resources all at once
If you hover the mouse over a resource, a settings button appears. Here, you can click "Select Multiple" and define the range by pressing the `SHIFT` key to select multiple items at once. ![](https://cdn.videostew.com/web/views/guide/multi-delete.mp4?_=87k6) Please proceed with the deletion through the trash can icon at the top right. However, if the resources have already been used in another project, please be careful when you wish to edit that project again as the elements may not load properly.

Stock

This is the stock live library provided by VideoStew. You can change the search engine by category for each element, and search results vary by engine.

Search based on text content

If the auto-added b-roll elements (images and videos) do not suit your taste, you can search for recommended stock images based on the content you entered. ![](https://cdn.videostew.com/web/views/guide/Screenshot_2023-12-12_AM_10.09.45.png?_=18vjv) < Find videos and images by matching text > You can also click the settings (▼) button to perform a "Search based on b-roll". This function searches for stock resources that are relevant and similar to the images currently included in the slide.
