Effects
Working with the Preview Image
Instead of loading a clip in the Effect Editor, you can work with the preview images (the gray and
blue panels that appear in the Editor Inlay when no clip is currently loaded). This can be helpful
for preparing and trying out effects because the volume of data to be calculated is much smaller,
thus speeding up the preview. (See also
“Effect Viewer” on page 11-70.)
Effect Editor Full Screen Mode
Especially if you work with a dual monitor setup, it makes sense to set the Effect Editors to Full
Screen Mode. The left monitor now displays the video inlay in almost complete full page size; the
tool buttons are arranged in freely movable windows on the right screen.
To s w itch to Full Screen Mode, click the indicated tool symbol in the toolbar of the active Effect
Editor. To leave the Full Screen Mode, click the symbol again.
Full screen mode is not usually available for realtime effect editors.
