View Transform Tool

The View Transform tool allows you to bake in the same colour processing the viewports apply on the fly. Use the View Transform tool to use a viewing transform to convert from a tagged or working colour space to a display colour space by:
  1. From the Tagged Colour Space menu, select the colour space of the incoming clip. Choose "From Source" to have the input space set automatically.
  2. Select the display colour space you want to convert to from the Display menu. Choose "Current Broadcast Monitor" or "Current Graphics Monitor" to use the settings configured in Colour Management Preferences.
  3. Select the view transform you want to apply from the View Transform menu. Select "From Rules" to use the highest priority viewing rule for the given Tagged Colour Space and Display. Select from the Viewing Rules category to choose one of the other compatible rules of lower priority. Or select any other view transform.
Note: By choosing the Tagged and Display colour spaces first, the list of viewing rules will be filtered to show you only the compatible options (just like in the viewports).

The automatic conversion algorithm will first convert from the tagged colour space to the colour space expected by the view transform. Then the view transform will be applied. Then the automatic conversion algorithm will convert from the output space of the view transform to the requested display space.

By enabling the Invert button, you are able to convert from a display space to a working colour space via an inverse view transform. This is sometimes useful for bringing video material into a scene-linear working space. When these scene-linear values later play out through the forward view transform, the result will look the same as the original material.
