Graphics Display

Graphics display is a function that allows you to display wire frames,

coordinate axes and a grid over the current DME image, to make it easier to

create effects in three-dimensional coordinate space.

Graphics displayed by this function can also be output to the monitor output

On the MVE-8000 and the MVE-8000A (when using the DME dedicated

interface), these graphics cannot be output to the monitor output connector.

To make graphics display settings, use the DME menu. (For details, see

"Graphics Display Operation" (page 514).)

You can display the following kinds of graphics.

A wire frame displays an image enclosed in a frames, so that you can check the

position and size of the image. If there is a shadow (see page 669), a frame is

shown for the shadow as well.

Coordinate axes

This is a three-dimensional display of coordinates in local or global coordinate

space. You can check the origin of the axes and the directions of the x-, y-, and

This displays the channel number so that you can check which channel you are

using, a useful feature when you are working with multiple channels.

Channel IDs are displayed differently in local and global coordinate space.

• In local coordinate space, the channel number is displayed along with "F" or

"B" to indicate whether you are looking at the front (F) or back (B) of the

current wire frame. For example, "1F" means the front of the wire frame on

channel 1 in local coordinate space.

• In global coordinate space, the channel number is displayed along with "G"

to indicate global. For example, "G2" means channel 2 in global coordinate
