Minimize Clip Panel

I don’t use clips, I hardly record anything, so perhaps offer an option to disable the clips panel so it doesnt take up extra space? Instead of forcing it into frame when I am clearly here for a good trainer..

    I already more than enough clip recording options with Steam, Windows Gamebar, and GeForce and am never going to use the clips for Wand.

    It’s annoying having to constantly maximize the mod section for my games (when that’s the only reason I use Wand) because half of the screen is taken by clips even though I have them disabled.

    I always appreciate when new features and options are added, but give me an option to turn them off if it’s something I won’t use.

        Thanks for your reply,

        Here is a screenshot with what I’m referring to. Whenever I select a game in Wand I have have a large amount of my screen taken up by Clips and I have to click the expand arrow marked in the red box in order to minimize the clips.

        I already have videos turned off in the settings, but I don’t see a way to remove the clips panel from appearing whenever I select a game.

    Please make it possible to hide the Clips by default. This is very annoying when space on a second screen matters.

    I don’t use clips either and it takes up too much memory with it grabbing automatically. Please let us disable this feature and save out storage space.

    New games page - make modular

    I never take clips from my games, so having a relatively large dedicated section taken up by ‘clips’ is a waste of space. Maybe make that modular, and we can choose something to highlight that matches our gaming style?

    I was just thinking the same. If I disable the video feature in options, it would be nice if that just hid clips everywhere. I understand though maybe someone had used it before and that could be confusing. Either way its a waste of space for a feature I’d never use either.
