Chapter 8 Commands 121
Display Framerate Specifies the frame rate used by the display computers. This setting lets
WATCHOUT optimize its behavior to match the frame rate of any video being
used in the presentation, as well as the display devices. Your display computers
should use a matching refresh rate (see page 28 for more information).
Standby Rates Specifies the fade out and fade in rates for the standby command (page 134).
Default Image Duration Display duration used for images added to timelines.
Default Audio Volume Volume level used to play audio not governed by a Volume tween track. Set
this to a value below 100% to provide for some additional headroom when
controlling the playback volume.
Center Anchor Position When checked, the anchor point will be aligned with the center of the image
when you drag an image to a timeline or the Stage window. See “Anchor Posi-
tion” on page 172.
Edge Blend Drag the round dot to adjust the edge blend curve. Although it is possible to
add more points to the curve, this is generally not required. The same curve is
applied to all edges. The left of the curve corresponds to the outer (dark) edge
of the gradient. Your display computers must be online for you to see the effect
of the edge blend curve while changing it.
▲ IMPORTANT: Before attempting to adjust the edge blend curve, make sure
your projectors are set up properly (see page 246). If not, it may be impos-
sible to get a proper edge blend.
Double-click a point to view and edit its value numerically, or to change its
type. This also allows you to precisely copy the edge blend curve from one
presentation to another.
◆ HINT: Enlarge the window for better precision in adjusting the curve.
