performing tasks that don’t involve source clips, such as audio mixing, you might display
the Program view only. You can also resize the Monitor window to any size between
minimum and maximum limits. When you do, the video displays in both views scale
accordingly.
To customize the Monitor window view:
Do any of the following:
•
To limit the view to the Program view, choose Single View from
the Program view’s menu.
•
To limit the view to the Source view, choose Single View from the Source view’s menu.
•
To return to the side-by-side Source and Program view, choose Dual View from the
single view’s menu.
•
To resize the Monitor window, drag the bottom right corner of the window. The source
and program video displays scale accordingly.
Viewing safe zones
You can view safe zone guides in the Monitor window’s Source view, Program view, or
both. Safe zone guides are for your reference and are not included in previews or export.
For more about safe zones, see “Understanding title-safe and action-safe margins” on
page 196.

To view safe zones in the Monitor window:
Click the Safe Margins button below the Source or Program view. Click the button again
to remove the safe zone guides.
The standard action- and title-safe margins are 10% and 20%, respectively. However,
you can change the dimensions of the safe zones in the Project Settings dialog box
(see “Specifying project settings” on page 58).

Choosing a Quality setting
By default, the Monitor window displays video at the highest quality. That is, it displays all
the pixels of each frame. However, you can reduce the resolution of the Source or
Program
view to decrease the processing demands on your computer. For example, reducing the
quality setting of the Program view may allow your system to create real-time previews of
parts of the sequence that would otherwise require rendering (see “Previewing a
sequence” on page 157).
To choose a Quality setting:
In the Source or Program view’s pop-up menu, choose a Quality setting:
•
Highest Quality displays video in the Monitor window at full resolution.
•
Draft Quality displays video in the Monitor window at one-half resolution.
•
Automatic Quality measures playback performance and dynamically adjusts quality.
Note: Regardless of the Quality setting, the image in the Monitor window is processed at a
lower quality than when you export the video. All Quality settings use a bilinear pixel
resampling method to resize the video image and do not process interlaced fields, if
present. For exporting a sequence, however, Adobe Premiere Pro uses a cubic
resampling
method (which is superior to bilinear) and processes fields.
Changing the magnification
By default, the Monitor window scales video to fit into the available area of the Source and
