Viewing the Image While You Work
The Display Fast menu lets you select how you view the image as you work on it.
To set the Display parameter:
|
|
Click the Display Fast Menu button, and select Source or Target.
|
– |
|
Source shows you the entire image scaled to fit inside the Effect
Preview monitor. Use Source Display mode as you draft the effect.
|
The pan and zoom settings appear as a rectangle (4:3 aspect ratio)
superimposed over the image. The closer in you zoom, the smaller
the rectangle appears.
– |
|
Target shows you the results of your pan and zoom settings. Use
Target Display mode for previewing your moves.
|
A crosshair appears at the center of the image. If you use Target
Display mode and one of the real-time filtering options, the image
appears pixelated in the Effect Preview monitor. This does not
affect the quality of the rendered image. For more information, see
Options for Rendering the Avid Pan & Zoom Effect.
The Show Action Safe button in the Display Options parameter category controls the display of the Safe Action area. If your material will be viewed on screens with limited viewing areas, such as standard televisions, you can use the Show Action Safe option to provide a visual guideline in the Effect Preview monitor that replicates the actual viewable area on a standard television screen.
