Deselect Interactivity to have the view use software rendering. Note that
the Reaction tool disregards any display modifier set for the Player when
Interactivity is enabled. Recall that you set a display modifier for a Player
in the third tab of the Player options—see
Applying a LUT or Color
Conversion Tool to the Player
on page 210.
4 Select View Name to display the name of the Reaction view currently
being shown (reference or camera).
Things to Remember
■ Hardware rendering is only used with Reaction nodes.
Setting the Pixel Aspect Ratio of the Player
You can set the aspect ratio of the pixels that the Player view or fullscreen
Player uses, either square and non-square pixels.
NOTE You can only toggle the pixel aspect ratio in the fullscreen Player if you
entered it through a Player view.
To set the pixel aspect ratio in a Player view:
1 In the Player view or fullscreen Player, middle-click or press the tilde key
(~) to display the Gate UI and go through the south gate.
2 In the Player options, select the Display tab.
3 Under Interaction, select Aspect Ratio to use non-square pixels. In this
case the Player displays the image using the pixel aspect ratio defined for
the composition. You can examine this ratio in the Pixel Aspect Ratio
field in the Composition tab of the Tool UI. Deselect Aspect Ratio to use
square pixels.
Displaying Player Option Information in the
Player view
You can set the Player view or the fullscreen Player to display information in
a bar at the bottom of the Player. This is a convenient reminder of the options
set for that Player, and can be particularly useful when you using more than
one Player view.
