Is there an update on converting edited View Mode for Try and Test Mode?

Hi DougB72,

I see what you’re running into here. That’s a lot of cleanup work to redo, especially after trimming your slides down.

Here’s how this works today. Once a screen recording is inserted as View Mode, there isn’t a way to convert that edited version into Try or Test modes. Those modes need to be selected at the time you insert the recording.

You can reuse the original screen recording file and insert it again as Try or Test mode, but any edits you made to the View Mode version, like deleting or refining slides, won’t carry over. So I can see why this quickly turns into extra work.

You’re also right to call out those older discussions. This is something that’s been requested before, and I can understand why it continues to come up given the workflow impact. Being able to reuse an already edited recording across modes would be a big time-saver.

I’ve shared your use case with our product team. We’re continuing to track this need, especially for scenarios like yours where significant edits have already been made.
