Video Settings vs. Scene Settings
This is amongst some of the most common things that appear to be confusing for beginners. There are quite a few quite a few differences between the video settings and the scene settings.
Location
Video Settings are located in the lower left corner of the Doodly Project Development Screen just above the timeline. It is marked simply as Settings. Scene Settings are in the upper right hand corner of Doodly in the Actions/Objects/Layers section and is clearly marked as Scene Settings.
Video Settings
Anything changed in this section will set the default settings for the rest of the scenes in Doodly.
Video Setting Caveats
Not everything in this section will act as expected such as disabling the rainbow setting only removes the color from the current scenes throughout the doodle and most of the time, not all, disables the rainbow setting in the currently scenes. It does not disable the rainbow in the library which is what allows you to drag Doodly provided colored assets onto the canvas. It also does not disable the rainbow setting for any scenes created after this setting is disabled.

Scene Settings
Change or modify just that scene without affecting the default video settings configurations.
Enabling the ability to individually configure these settings for a specific scene requires turning off the default settings option to allow access to the individual settings like canvas type and different types of reveal hands.
We do not need to disable the default video setting configurations to access Rainbow, Exit Animations, and Subtitles.
Scene Setting Caveats
Subtitles will only be available if enabled in the video settings.
When rainbow is disabled, the library rainbow remains enabled which allows for dragging colored assets onto the canvas even with the rainbow disabled within that scene. Dragging a colored asset onto the canvas does not re-enable the rainbow setting within the scene settings.
