[**Riverside**](https://cotovan.com/riverside) **has introduced a fantastic feature that allows you to adjust the framing of individual videos during editing.** If you've ever struggled with guests being off-screen or not centred, this guide will show you how to achieve this.

## How to Change Layout to Grid

To start, you’ll want to change your layout to a grid to accommodate both guests efficiently. Here’s how:

Grid will display both guests on screen, filling half the space each.

An important note: if one of the speakers is not in the middle of the frame, you can easily adjust this in the next steps.

## Reposition Guests in the Frame

Now that you have the grid layout, it’s time to reposition your guests. Here’s how:

You can repeat this for the other guest as well. Each track can be managed individually, allowing for precise adjustments.

## Zooming and Cropping for Better Fit

Sometimes, the layout doesn't fit perfectly, and you might see black bars around your videos. Here’s how to zoom and crop for a better fit:

This is particularly useful if your layout is set to "fit" rather than "fill." By zooming in, you can provide the necessary space to move the video around effectively.

## Reordering and Disabling Tracks

If you want to change the order of your guests or disable a track, it’s straightforward:

This feature is handy if you want to focus on just one guest or yourself, removing distractions from the screen.
