  • viewing motion path in program window

    Posted by Dane Watkins on May 18, 2008 at 6:32 pm

    Hi all –

    I’m trying to create some pan/scan things on a still image.

    I can view the path of the image in the program window, but only if I go very small on the zoom level, say 10%. Well, if you want to do any fine-detail work with the path, it’s impossible.

    If I go higher on the zoom, the path goes off the screen, and I have no idea how to pan down to see it. Why the heck wouldn’t there be a scroll bar so you can view the entire path?

    Without being able to see the exact motion path in close-up, you can’t do any fine detail motion.

    Am I missing something?

    Thanks a lot!

    Dane

    The Type of work you are trying to do is more an After Effects thing. That program allows you to see beyond the workspace using the hand tool. I’m not sure what you want to do as far as detail goes, but you can make the monitor window fullscreen by positioning your mouse over the monitor window and hitting the tilda key (~) under the Esc key.
    You’re 10% can now probably go upto 50%.
