Tubelexity creator guide

YouTube end-screen size and layout planning guide

An end-screen planning overlay helps an editor reserve room for video, playlist and subscribe elements before publishing. Tubelexity uses a 1920 × 1080 working canvas and neutral placeholders, but YouTube controls the final interactive elements and can change placement behavior.

Open the End-Screen Preview

Step-by-step workflow

  1. 01Choose a video, image or blank 16:9 background.
  2. 02Preview the final 5 to 20 seconds.
  3. 03Choose a template and arrange neutral elements.
  4. 04Keep guides away from titles and player controls.
  5. 05Export a transparent overlay or layout JSON.

Use a 16:9 planning canvas

A 1920 × 1080 canvas provides precise coordinates while scaling cleanly to other 16:9 sizes. Positioning is stored as percentages so layouts remain responsive.

Leave interface breathing room

Safe margins, title, channel and player-control guides reduce collisions. They are planning approximations, not an official permanent specification.

  • Keep important artwork outside placeholder rectangles.
  • Check small mobile previews.
  • Review the live publishing interface before release.

What exports contain

The transparent PNG contains selected guide elements only. PNG and JPG previews can include the current media background. Layout JSON stores element positions for later import.
