Chapter 8 Commands 131
STAGE MENU The Stage menu applies specifically to the contents of the Stage window.
Add Display Adds a new display of the specified size to the Stage window. After adding a
display, open its specifications dialog box to enter its specifications (see
“Display Specifications” on page 158).
▲ IMPORTANT: Displays can not be added while Online is selected on the
Stage menu.
The secondary menu provides some common display sizes as shortcuts. You
can, however, enter any size in the display’s dialog box as long as it is
supported by the physical display and the interface card in the display
computer.
◆ NOTE: Displays are added to the current stage tier (see “Using Stage Tiers
for Complex Display Arrangements” on page 98). Move displays between
tiers using the Cut and Paste commands
Scale Sets the viewing scale of the Stage window. A larger preview gives you greater
precision in positioning displays and images using the mouse.
◆ HINT: In addition to these fixed scale factors, you can zoom to any area of
interest using the mouse while holding down the Control key (see “Setting
the Stage Scale” on page 97).
View Rotates the Stage window preview so that you can view images, motion paths
and other elements from the left or top instead of the front. This is useful when
positioning images in 3D space, or editing complex motion paths. See “3D
Views” on page 100.
