Overview
Manim Studio has two workspaces that look, at a glance, like they could have been one: the main scene editor, where you place circles and axes and function graphs and keyframe them on a timeline, and the Canvas studio, where you draw freeform paths with a pen tool, import SVGs, and animate individual points. They live in the same project file and share the same window. They are still deliberately kept apart, and it's worth understanding why — because the separation shows up in one place that can be genuinely surprising: what actually gets rendered.
