ChatCut Desktop can create an editable Jianying Pro or CapCut draft from the active Timeline. This is a Desktop-only handoff, not a rendered MP4.

## Create the editable draft

1.  Open the project in **ChatCut Desktop**.
2.  Select **Export** in the editor header.
3.  Open **CapCut** in the English interface or **剪映** in Chinese.
4.  If more than one compatible app is detected, use **App** to choose the destination.
5.  Optional: under **Include**, enable **Motion graphics**. This can require Pro and renders the graphics as transparent clips.
6.  Expand **Some items aren’t supported** when shown. Review both **Imported** and **Not supported**; anything under **Not supported** must be rebuilt in the destination editor.
7.  Select **Export**.
8.  In the completion dialog, select **Open CapCut** or **Open 剪映专业版**. If the destination was already running, select **Restart CapCut** or **Restart 剪映专业版** so the new draft appears.

## If the destination tab or Export button is missing

-   **No CapCut / 剪映 tab:** confirm that you are in ChatCut Desktop and have installed a compatible app. Close and reopen **Export Settings** after installation; app detection refreshes when the dialog opens.
-   **Tab visible but Export disabled:** open the destination app once so it creates its draft folder, then close and reopen **Export Settings**.

The result remains editable, but unsupported ChatCut-only properties are not guaranteed to transfer. Review the destination timeline before delivery.
