4.6 Safe Title Area Menu

This feature displays a safe title area test pattern per SMPTE Recommended Practice
RP 27.3-1989. The DV2000-generated pattern deviates from the SMPTE pattern in
that it shows square corners as well as round corners.
The pattern will "paint" after each subtitle when used with .usf subtitle scripts. This
allows you to easily check each subtitle in a show for conformance to RP 27.3.
You can set the safe title area pattern to several colors and transparencies by cycling
through the color menu. ULTECH also provides a useful graticule for taking mea-
surements of on-screen items in terms of DV2000 coordinates. The graticule is a
graphics file called TestGrid.uyc and a related script file: TestGrid.scr.
