ChatCut reuses it for future videos and lets you replace it later. #### See the creation cost before continuing The photo-avatar creation flow shows the current estimated credit cost before the creation request is submitted. Related docs: [Generation Credits](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/generation-credits) #### Live credit estimates in the final confirmation Before a digital-human video is submitted, the final confirmation uses the live backend estimate instead of a hardcoded price. Version requirement: Agent Plugin No update required Related docs: [Generation Confirmations and Auto-Allow](https://pr-444-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/generation-confirmations) ### Background removal #### Remove image backgrounds with AI Create a transparent cutout from an image and continue positioning, styling, or animating it on the canvas. ### Playback #### Faster J, K, and L playback controls Keyboard shuttle controls respond with less delay when changing direction, pausing, or increasing playback speed.

Version requirement: Desktop No update required, Agent Plugin No update required #### Deleted voices are removed from saved defaults Deleting a cloned voice now clears any digital-human default that referenced it, so future generation does not reuse a missing voice. Version requirement: Desktop No update required, Agent Plugin No update required #### Clearer voice controls Avatar cards no longer show duplicate voice controls, and the replacement flow prioritizes voices you own. ### Viewer #### Selected canvas items stay interactive On Desktop, the selected item keeps priority when media overlaps, its handles stay above hover layers, and portions outside the Viewer can still be selected and dragged.
