View Image File
File menu > View Image File
Choose and view still images, numbered image sequences, images in an
IFL
file
on page 7131 , or animation files using options in the View File dialog. Still
images and numbered image sequences appear in the
rendered frame window
on page 5885 .
If you choose an IFL file in the file dialog, the Info button displays the contents
of the text file in Windows Notepad.
You can zoom in and out and pan the image, even while a scene is rendering.
If you have a wheel mouse, you can use its third-button/wheel to zoom and
pan. See the following procedures.
If you choose an animation file (
AVI on page 7118 or QuickTime MOV on
page 7140 ), the software starts the Windows Media Player so that you can play
it. The Media Player has its own Help system.
