Hover Scrub in the Gallery
When Live Preview is enabled in the Gallery option menu, the Hover Scrub Preview submenu
lets you choose how you want Live Preview to be shown by a thumbnail in the Gallery and in
the Viewer when you hover the pointer over a still or LUT in the LUT Browser:
You can choose to scrub both the thumbnail youre hovering over and the Viewer,
letting you preview the current still’s grade or a LUT over the duration of the current clip
in both the thumbnail and Viewer.
You can choose to scrub just the thumbnail, leaving the Viewer to show just the grade
or LUT over the frame at the position of the playhead.
You can disable scrubbing altogether, in which case both the thumbnail and the Viewer
will only show the grade or LUT over the frame at the position of the playhead.

Playing Stills and
Setting Up Image Wipes
There are many ways to play a still in the Color page, making it visible as an image wipe in the
Viewer and on the external display connected to your video interface.
To play a still, displaying it as an image wipe or full screen, do one of the following:
Double-click a still in the Gallery.
Select a still in the Gallery, and click the Image Wipe button on the top Viewer toolbar.
Click a still in the Gallery, then right-click in the Viewer and choose
Show Reference Wipe.
From the View > Stills menu, choose Next Still (Option-Command-N) or Previous Still
(Option-Command-B) to select a still in the Gallery, and then choose Wipe On/Off
(Command-W) to play it.
Press PREV STILL or NEXT STILL on the Transport panel of the DaVinci control panel to
select a still, then press PLAY STILL. Press PLAY STILL again to dismiss the still.
Whenever you play a still, the Viewer mode’s drop-down menu changes to Split mode.
Once displayed, the wipe between the current clip and the still being referenced can be moved
and reoriented in different ways. If you want a full-screen view so you can flip back and forth
between the still and the current clip, simply adjust the split until the still fills the entire Viewer.
