Just tryed out 10.0.6 – Event Viewer Option grayed out?
Posted by Neil Goodman on November 9, 2012 at 4:41 pmI just installed 10.0.6 to see the new stuff. The event viewer will open but all the option for viewing are greyed out. I can see multiclips in that windpw and all the respective angles but when i click on a clip in the events page, noting shows up in the viewer and it plays out of the record window like normal. What am i missing?

November 9, 2012 at 8:46 pmDo you have any clip in the event library selected?
Best,

November 9, 2012 at 8:48 pmIn the second picture, it doesn’t look as if you don’t have the event viewer open. It looks like you are looking at the normal viewer.
The options for the event viewer are greyed out when the timeline is active and selected.
Open the event viewer (CTRL+CMD+3). You can also see the menu item near the top of the menu you have open.
Then select a clip in your browser (on the 2nd monitor I presume?) and scrub in the usual way to see the footage.
Just to be clear on this. The event viewer in NOT the same thing as the multi-angle viewer. They are different. In your first pic, you have the normal viewer with multi-angle viewer setting selected. In the second pic you still only have the normal viewer, but you are trying to access the settings of the event viewer.
Clear as mud, I hope.

“Ok thats where im stuck. I know the multi viewer and event viewer are two different things. From the drop down menu i can open the multiclip veiwer no problem, select how many angles etc. A multiclip doesn’t even have to be selected for the widow itself to open. It’ll just show up blank without anything highlighted.
If i close the multiclip viewer, go to menu option right below it “event viewer” , its greyed out like you see above. No option to open it up. I had an event highlighted in that screen but as you guessed its off to the second monitor.

November 9, 2012 at 9:27 pmOh duh, i see where your talking about. Open event viewer or use the shortcut. . N/M thanks everyone. I was assuming it was an option inside the veiwer display drop down.

November 9, 2012 at 11:01 pmI initially had the same thought when I downloaded 10.0.6 since it’s the behavior of the angle viewer. Took me a few minutes to find out where they put the event viewer. Not surprised it’s a little confusing.
