When using 16-bit floating point images, you can select Clamp to clamp colour and luminance values, or No Clamp to allow pixel floating point values to be less the 0 or more than 1.
The destination colour values are obtained from the current frame. If you input both front and matte clips, the colour values in the front clip that are defined by the white part of the matte are displayed.
You can also zoom horizontally by pressing Ctrl+spacebar and dragging left or right in the histogram. To pan horizontally, click spacebar and drag left or right in the histogram.
