    100% agree, even with stills I have a tendency to toggle back and forth from a full screen still, rather than wipe a split except in cases you mention: matching specific shot elements accurately.

    There is actually a Split-Screen mode that automatically compares the previous two, current, and next shots automatically as a four up display, such that you can make adjustments to the current shot while monitoring all four adjacent shots. Moving to another shot automatically updates this four-up display, so you can move from shot to shot and always see a set of comparison images for grading. No still store required.

    To do this:

    (1) Turn on “Split Screen” in the top Viewer toolbar

    (2) Choose “Neighbor Clips” from the split screen mode pop-up that appears

    This is a full-frame, side-by-side comparison that you can toggle on and off. There are other useful split-screen modes as well to display other comparisons, such as my favorite, the “Selected Clips” mode that lets you see a comparison of all the clips you care to select in the timeline (up to 16). The full explanation is on p.474 of the user manual, if you want all the details.

    I agree Alexis. Split screen in ‘selected clips’ mode is very useful and one of my favourite features. Seeing up to 16 thumbnails is amazing. One of the reasons I like the idea of comparing the out frame to the in is for quick q/c.

    Ah, I got you, you want to compare the In and Out frames of the SAME CLIP. There’s no control for that currently, but I can see why that would be interesting.
