Comparing Three Shots in the Triptych Player

The triptych player provides three players, side-by-side, which you can use to simultaneously view the same clip in different contexts. For example, you can set the middle player to play the clip, the left player to show the clip's incoming frame of the current element in the timeline, and the right player to show the clip's outgoing frame.

To compare three shots in the triptych player:

  1. Click the Timeline tab.
  2. Select Triptych from the View Mode box.
  3. Select a clip from the Media Library.

    The clip appears in the triptych player in all three viewers. Coloured positioners help you identify clips in Triptych view (green, yellow, orange from left to right).

  4. Use the Positioners Options box to set the behaviour of the viewports (such as All Synced or All Free).
    5. Tip: Triptych view is also available from all editors with multiview capabilities. You can set the positioners in the Playback Options box.
