Project settings
When you create a new project, its properties are determined by the New
dialog box settings at the time you create it. These settings are integral to
your project and determine not only how your previews are created, but also
the format of your final movie. When you want to change these properties
and customize a project
while you are already inside the project, you can
change the Project Settings.
To view and/or alter your project settings while in the project:
1. Click the Project Settings button at
the bottom of the track buttons, or
select File: Project Settings
[
ALT
+
ENTER
]. This opens the Project
Settings dialog box where you can
view the properties of your project.
2. To change any of the settings click
the Edit button to open the Project
Options dialog box. Click through
the various tabs and then specify the
television standard you are using,
such as NTSC or PAL, the frame
rate, and the frame size. You can also
control the number of overlay tracks
displayed and view the files currently
used by the project.
Notes:
•
The number of tabs which appear in the Project Options dialog box depends on
which Edit file format you have selected in the Project Settings dialog box.
•
The Frame Rate option determines the number of frames for any resulting video
file. The appearance of the clip on the Timeline will not change.
•
Changing a project's properties clears the undo/redo history.
•
Project settings directly determine the default settings in the Video Save Options
dialog box (see page 217) which in turn determines your final video format.
