Where it is: Side menu → Scenes (or “Edit” on Studio's Scenes card)
Scenes is where you build what's seen on stream. Each scene is a set of layers (your screen, your camera, images, the chat…) that you move, crop and order on a canvas. Your scenes are on the left, the canvas in the middle and the layer list on the right.
A scene is a complete layout: for example “Playing”, “Just chatting” or “Starting soon”. During the stream you switch between them from Studio.
Projects group scenes to tidy up a long list. Pick or create one with the selector at the top of the left column; you can also rename it.
With + you create a new scene. In each scene's ⋯ menu you have Rename, Duplicate, Delete and Export scene as link.
Everything you see is a layer. With the + on the layer list you add:
The layer at the top of the list is the one in front; drag the ⋮⋮ handle to change the order.
Besides the usual captures, StreamPack Studio has its own elements that move by themselves with what happens on your networks: they work as soon as you connect your account in Livestreaming. You add them with the + on the layer list and customize each one in its Settings.
This is how they look in a scene, cycling through some of their styles:
Tip: With no stream data (for example, before you start) Top donors and Top likes draw nothing. In their settings, Show sample in the scene displays test rows so you can place them; they never go out on stream.
Click the layer on the canvas or in the list: drag it to move it and pull its corners to resize it. In its Settings you adjust position, size, opacity, crop and the options of each type.
In the list you can hide it without deleting it, lock it so it can't be moved from the canvas, and duplicate it. Ctrl+Z undoes and Ctrl+Y redoes.
Tip: Drag an image from Windows Explorer onto the canvas and it's added as a layer.
Several layers that move together, for example an AI-generated overlay with its chat frame and its camera frame. In the list they appear folded under a G header: unfold it to see what's inside, or select the whole group to move it at once.
Open the screen layer's Settings and pick the monitor in Screen being captured. For a window or a game, use Pick another window or Pick another game.
You can switch monitors with the stream running: the picture moves to the new one without cutting the stream.
Because what looks good horizontally doesn't fit the same way vertically. With Dual canvas on, above the canvas you choose whether you're composing the 16:9 or the 9:16, and each one remembers where every layer goes.
A layer can also be exclusive to one orientation (for example, a big chat only in vertical).
Make main sets which of the two shows in Studio when the dual canvas is off there.
On the layer list, Overlay AI opens an assistant where AI designs the scene's overlay for you:
It costs tokens depending on the quality; the dialog shows you the cost and your balance before generating. The result is added as layers you can then move and edit, and you can separate elements of an image into loose pieces.
If you have a camera layer selected, the button becomes Frame AI: it generates a decorative frame sized for your camera. It's created on a green background and cut out by itself so your picture shows through.
Yes. In the scene's ⋯ menu choose Export scene as link and paste that link in the other tool as a browser source.
Export the whole scene, not each layer separately: that way everything stays together, in place and in sync.
Important: Captures (screen, window, game, camera and phone), audio and the On-screen crowd aren't exported: add them directly in the other tool, which captures them without delay. Studio has to be open on the same computer.
A scene's cameras, windows, games and phone turn on when you put it on air: if you're looking at a scene that isn't live, it may not show those captures yet.
If the scene on air doesn't show either, see Troubleshooting.
