Barry Beckham Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 The opportunity to use larger images in our slide shows does give us the freedom compose the image in the 16:9 aspect ratio and larger images give us freedom to animate. With that in mind, I'd like a rule of thirds grid that I can apply over the player in the time line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonton Bruno Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Hi Barry. You already have the grid in the O&A window. I don't see were you want to put an extra grid, and what will be the purpose. Could you please develop ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Beckham Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 Did you make adjustments to the grid to get it to show the rule of thirds. I haven’t done that or looked at doing that. I just wanted a rule of thirds I could select easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 Select 3x3. DG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Beckham Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 I’m away from the computer right now and perhaps I was a little hasty and need to take a more detailed look at the grids. I admit I haven’t done that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 There is enough information in the Online Help to get you started. The default is the number of Sub-divisions in x and y directions that will show on the AR of your project. The major divisions (orange default) contain ten sub-divisions in each direction. You can also experiment with the Pixels option. DG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Beckham Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 I have never even looked at the grid much and for reasons I can’t explain, I never even tried any other settings, but of course 3 by 3 is obvious when you stop and think about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddi Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Took me a while before I figured out what '3x3' meant. But you have to uncheck the 'In pixel' selection before entering the '3x3'. Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonton Bruno Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 This is the way to configure it. Personaly I prefer to use a grid 10 by 10, with the orange lines crossing at the center of the screen. This is useful to evaluate the position of any subject. If you use the shape transition, you can then give precise coordinates for the center of the effect. And then you obtain a fine result. This way to work was described many years ago by Aginum on Diapositif forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
