When you have multiple edits inside a single Riverside project, switching between them used to require going back to the project page each time. Riverside's updated editor now lets you **navigate between edits directly** from inside the editor — no need to leave your current view.

## The Editor View

When you open an edit in Riverside, you get the full editing workspace: transcript on the left, video preview with captions on the right, and the timeline with scene markers at the bottom.

## Navigating Between Edits

At the top of the editor, you'll see a row of **edit thumbnails** — each one representing a different edit in your project. Click any thumbnail to instantly switch to that edit without leaving the editor.

The edit navigation bar shows all edits in your project — click any thumbnail to switch instantly.

You can scroll through the thumbnails horizontally to see all available edits. Each thumbnail shows a preview image and the edit's duration, making it easy to identify which edit you want.

Each edit shows its name, duration, and a preview thumbnail for quick identification.

## Managing Edits from the Navigation Bar

Right-click (or click the three-dot menu) on any edit thumbnail to see management options: **Rename**, **Duplicate**, or **Remove** the edit — all without leaving the editor view.

Right-click any edit thumbnail for quick management: rename, duplicate, or remove.

## Why This Matters

If you create multiple edits from the same recording — for example, a full episode, a highlight clip, and social media shorts — this feature saves significant time. Instead of navigating back to the project page and reopening each edit, you stay in the editor and switch with a single click.
