10.3.2 Positioning 

Each 

Overlay layer

 also includes 

Position

 

controls, to let you resize the overlaid 

source and place it according to taste.   

 

Roll the mouse pointer over the layer’s 

viewport to reveal the familiar gear icon.  

Click this to open the 

Positioning

 settings 

pane for the associated layer.  

Note: The Titles layer includes addition 

controls for editing title pages in this 

panel. These features are discussed in 

Chapter 12. 

 

 

 

 

Position Tab 

The Positioning 

panel is organized into tabs. The first, 

Position

, includes 

Position

,

 Zoom, and Rotation controls

.  

All 

Position

 settings can be toggled on and off together using the switch provided. 

  Click and drag on the 

Position

 button to relocate the 

PiP 

layer vertically or horizontally within the 

frame.  Dragging left or right directly  on either of the two nearby  numeric controls adjusts  the 

position on a single axis only.  

Hint: You can also constrain mouse actions to one axis by holding down the Ctrl key before dragging.  

  Dragging the cursor on the 

Zoom

 button (magnifying glass) 

affects the apparent size

 

of the overlay.  

Again, if you drag just one of the associated numeric gadgets 

you can adjust the corresponding layer in one dimension– 

width or height. 

  In similar fashion, drag the pointer over the 

Rotation

 button 

with the left mouse button depressed to turn the overlay 

source on three axes as follows: 

o

  Drag left/right to rotate the source about the Y 

(vertical) axis. 

o

  Drag up/down to rotate about the X (horizontal) axis. 

o

  Drag while holding 

Alt

 down to rotate about the Z axis. 

o

  Drag on a single numeric slider, or hold down 

Ctrl

 to constrain rotation to one axis. 

Hint: If you click a numeric field (or right-click it), you can type a value into the gadget using the 

keyboard; press Enter to complete the editing action, or Esc to cancel it. 

Overlay 

layers are automatically 

shown on the 

Preview

 monitors 

when the 

Position

 panel is open. 

This allows you to adjust 

positioning without the result 

being inadvertently shown on 

output.
