appearance settings from the corresponding

picture. The choices range from 10% From Bot-
tom to 50% From Bottom, in 10% increments.
"10% from Bottom" vertical position is out-
side the standard "safe title" area, which
means it may not be visible on some video
monitors.
Horizontal Position Sets the window dub's rela-
tive horizontal position within the video pic-
ture. The choices include Extreme Left, Left,
Center, Right and Extreme Right.
The "Extreme" horizontal positions are out-
side the standard "safe title" area, which
means they may not be visible on some
video monitors.
Size Sets the relative size of the window dub
(Small or Large).
Color Sets the color of the time code numbers in
the window dub, and the color of the window
dub's background. The choices include White on
Black Bkgnd; Black on White Bkgnd; White on Video
Bkgnd; or Black on Video Bkgnd. ("Video Bkgnd"
makes the window dub background transparent,
so that the time code numbers are displayed di-
rectly on top of the video signal.) The default
setting is White on Black Bkgnd.
Click OK.
