How do you create a walkthrough?
Layerpath creates a walkthrough from your screenshots, videos, or Loom link, or from a task you record in Chrome.
How it works
Use Create with Agent when you already have the screens, and Record your screen when you'll do the task now. Either way, Layerpath makes each screen a step and writes its callout, and you edit and share the walkthrough when it's ready. Owners, Admins, and Editors can create projects. Viewers can't.
Ways to start
| If you have | Use | Where to start |
|---|---|---|
| Screenshots or screen recordings on your device | Upload from device | Create with Agent > Upload from device |
| Images or videos from your other projects | Choose from library | Create with Agent > Choose from library |
| A Loom video of the task | Import Loom | Create with Agent > Import Loom |
| A task you can do in Chrome right now | Record your screen | Record your screen |
On Home, you'll find Create with Agent and Record your screen. On other pages, both are in the Create menu at the top right. To set the steps, voiceover, or tone yourself, see Create with Agent. For file types, sizes, and counts, see Supported files.
What happens after you create
Layerpath opens the project and shows its progress at the top of the page. Each stage gets a check mark when it's done.
| Stage | Message you see |
|---|---|
| Callouts | "Writing callouts for 8 steps", with your number of steps |
| Voiceover | "Generating voiceover", on paid plans |
| Finalizing | "Getting your project ready" |
| Done | "Project ready" |
While the project processes, Edit and Share are turned off. They turn on once the callouts are written if you used Create with Agent, or at Done if you recorded your screen.
While the callouts are written, you can preview projects made from screenshots or recordings. A project with a video or a Loom link shows its full preview once the callouts are ready. A video export waits for the voiceover. Until it's ready, the app says "Voiceover and video are still being prepared."
If it takes longer than 10 minutes or fails, see Project stuck or failed.
