Media properties (position, scale, time …)

Selecting and Viewing Media Elements

1. Accessing Media Information:

   • Click on any media element listed on the right side of the ExaPlay interface.

   • Detailed information about the selected element will appear, allowing you to view its properties.

2. Opening Multiple Windows:

   • You can open multiple windows within ExaPlay to view and work with different media elements simultaneously.

   • This feature enables you to compare or edit multiple items without switching back and forth between elements.

Adjusting Media Settings

1. Color Visibility:

   • For visual media like videos and images, adjust the color settings to ensure they are visible according to your preference.

2. Setting Screen Field:

   • Below the color settings, you can choose a specific screen field for the media element to occupy.

3. Custom Size and Position:

   • Define the size of the media element by percentage (e.g., 30%) or in pixels (e.g., 200 pixels).

   • Position the media element anywhere on the screen using the alignment tools.

4. Scaling Options:

   • Choose how the media element should fit the screen:

     • Original Size: Keeps the element at its original dimensions.

     • Fill: Expands the element so that one dimension fills the screen.

     • No Scaling: Displays the element without any size adjustments.

     • Cover: Stretches the element to cover the entire screen area.

Applying Settings to Screen Fields

1. Navigating to Screen Fields:

   • Go to the 'Targets' menu and select 'Screen Field'.

   • Choose 'New Field' to create a new screen area.

2. Configuration:

   • Apply the same sizing and positioning settings to the screen field as you would to a media element.

   • Assign the configured screen field to a track, composition, or specific media.

Options for Application:

• You can apply settings either directly to individual media elements or to screen fields, offering flexibility depending on your project needs.
