Working with markers
The display includes a full set of marker overlays that can be used to indicate specic areas or regions of the
frame. Multiple standard markers are included.
Film aspect ratio markers
Markers are provided for the standard theatrical aspect ratios 1.85:1 and 2.39:1. These markers will place a
line at the lm aspect ratio edge of both 17:9 (2048×1080) and 16:9 (2560×1440, 1920×1080, or 1280×720)
source inputs.
In the case of 17:9 source inputs, the lines are positioned at the DCI-dened locations. For 16:9 inputs, the
lines are positioned at the mathematical location of these lm aspect ratios. This means that a 1.85:1 aspect
ratio will use vertical lines for 17:9 source inputs and horizontal lines for 16:9 source inputs.
17:9 source inputs
16:9 source inputs
NOTE: Only one lm aspect ratio marker can be displayed at once. Therefore, if you have the 1.85:1 aspect
ratio marker enabled and you enable the 2.39 aspect ratio marker, the 1.85 aspect ratio marker will be
disabled.
