Problem. Templates copy a Short's structure, so authors want to know what is exposed. Conditions. A template carries the length and number of clips plus text, music and effects. Eligible Shorts are templates by default; the page lists remixable audio, multiple clips and text segments among conditions. Method. Others tap Remix then Use this template (or Use template on the Short), then add their own clips. To block, opt out of Shorts remixing (the Studio setting in C3-B791-04). Failure modes. A Short with non-remixable audio may not offer a template. Limitations. 'Among other conditions' means the full list is not published. Version and date. Undated.
