RECORD VIDEO IN LUCIDCHART, LUCIDSPARK, AND LUCIDSCALE

Combining Lucidchart, Lucidspark, or Lucidscale with the power of CloudApp or
Loom further enables teams to bring clarity and speed to their visual work.
Embed or play video recordings in your Lucidchart documents, Lucidspark boards,
or Lucidscale models with confidence knowing your message, tone of voice,
direction or explanation is captured — all without a long winded email or
unnecessary meetings to accompany your Lucid content. Read on to learn more
about how to record a video in Lucid.


RECORD VIDEO WITH LOOM


START RECORDING

You can record a video from a Lucidchart document, Lucidspark board, or
Lucidscale model. To do so, follow these steps from the workspace of your
choice:

 1. Select the video icon in the upper-right corner of the canvas.
    * If this is the first time you have recorded a video, read and agree to
      Terms and Conditions before clicking Get Started. Then, follow the prompts
      to allow access to your device’s microphone and camera. You will only need
      to do this once.
 2. Select Loom.
 3. In the window that appears, set the “Video settings” and “Recording
    settings” using the respective drop-down menus.
    
    
    * Click Show advanced settings to access more options like enabling a
      Recording Countdown.
 4. Select Start recording.
 5. Choose what to record. You can select the entire screen, a specific window,
    or a Chrome tab.
 6. Click Share to start recording. A countdown will appear which indicates when
    the recording will start.

Once you begin recording, your image will appear in the lower-left corner of
your screen alongside a control panel. You can reposition where your image
appears in the recording by clicking and dragging it to a new area of the
screen.




MANAGE RECORDING

You can use the control panel found in the bottom-left corner of the workspace
to manage your recording.



From this control panel, you can:

 * Finish recording (select the red square)
 * Pause the recording
 * Cancel and delete the recording

After you finish recording, a window will appear where you can:

 * review the recording.
 *  cancel and start over.
 *  delete the video and exit.
 *  copy the video link to view on Loom.



Select Insert recording to add the recording into your Lucid diagram. See the
Manage video in Lucid section for information on using the video after it’s been
inserted.


ADD EMOJI REACTIONS AND COMMENTS

From the panel across the bottom of a Loom video shape, you and collaborators
can leave emoji reactions and add comments directly to the video. All emojis and
comments will appear in the recording at the time stamp they were added.

Note: The emoji reactions and comments functionality described here is a part of
the Loom integration and is separate from Lucidspark’s comment feature and
Lucidchart’s comment feature.



 * To add an emoji reaction, click a reaction as the video is playing.
 * To add a comment, select the Comments icon and type your message.

To review and reply to comments, select the View Comments icon in the
upper-right corner of the video shape.



You can:

 * Add a new comment by clicking the text box, typing your comment, and pressing
   the “Enter” key on your keyboard.
 * Respond to a comment by selecting Reply.
 * Remove a comment by clicking Delete.


RECORD VIDEO WITH CLOUDAPP


START RECORDING

You can record a video from a Lucidchart document, Lucidspark board, or
Lucidscale model. To do so, follow these steps from the workspace of your
choice:

 1. Select the video icon in the upper-right corner of the canvas.
    * If this is the first time you have recorded a video, read and agree to
      Terms and Conditions before clicking Get Started. Then, follow the prompts
      to allow access to your device’s microphone and camera. You will only need
      to do this once.
 2. Select CloudApp.
 3. In the window that appears, set the “Video settings” and “Recording
    settings” using the respective drop-down menus.
    
    
    * Click More options to access options like Video quality.
 4. Select Record screen.
 5. Choose what to record. You can select the entire screen, a specific window,
    or a Chrome tab.
 6. Click Share to start recording. A countdown will appear which indicates when
    the recording will start.

Once you begin recording, your image will appear in the lower-left corner of
your screen alongside a control panel. You can reposition where your image
appears in the recording by clicking and dragging it to a new area of the
screen.


MANAGE RECORDING

You can use the control panel found in the bottom-left corner of the workspace
to manage your recording.

Hover over the blinking red video icon to see the full control panel. 



From the control panel, you can:

 * End the recording
 * Pause the recording
 * Restart the recording
 * Delete the recording

After you finish recording, a window will appear where you can:

 *  review the recording.
 *  adjust the volume of the video preview.
 *  enter full screen for video preview.



Select Save to insert your video into your Lucid diagram. It will appear as a
shape on your canvas. See the Manage video in Lucid section for information on
using the video after it’s been inserted.


MANAGE VIDEO IN LUCID

Once you have inserted the video, you can:

 * Play the video by clicking the play icon.
 * Reposition the video by clicking and dragging.
 * Resize the video shape by clicking and dragging from a side or edge of the
   shape.

FAQ

The video icon is grayed out and I cannot select it. Why?

Please ensure you are using an up-to-date and compatible browser. Recording
video in Lucidchart, Lucidspark, or Lucidscale with CloudApp or Loom is
compatible with Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Brave.

I am unable to select CloudApp on Firefox. Why?

CloudApp is not supported on Firefox. You will need to use a different browser
that is compatible with CloudApp.

Do I need to enable third-party cookies to record a video in Lucidchart,
Lucidspark, or Lucidscale?

Yes. Both CloudApp and Loom require that third-party cookies be enabled. You can
read more about CloudApp’s privacy policy here and  Loom’s privacy policy here.
