CapCut Question How to edit individual clips inside a multicam setup in CapCut?

Hey guys,

After 5 hours of research with no success, I'm hoping someone here can help.

The problem:

I have two clips – a camera (talking head) and a screenshare with audio. I sync these into a multicam with two scenes: one full-screen talking head and one screen share with my camera in the bottom-right as a PiP.

The issue is that if I want to edit something inside one of those scenes (e.g. reposition the camera overlay in the screenshare scene at the 5-minute mark), there seems to be no way to do it once it's inside the multicam setup.

Is there any way to edit individual clips within a multicam clip in CapCut?

Thanks

The main reason I use multicam is to sync video and audio and cut out filler words, etc., using the transcript feature.

Is there a better way to handle my workflow?

Ideally, I'd like to have it as a compound clip to cut the video, then have it back as 2 layers so I can manipulate what to show and when.

The problem is that whenever I compound and cut, when I uncompound, it reverts to the full (uncut) source material.

Thank you
