How to make U shape in display

Post by moha20106 »

Hi all,
I'm trying to make frame ( flipped U shape) in one display
(sketch attached)
The flipped U shape (screen 1) will show visual loops only
The internal display (screen2) will be the main screen
But the two screens in one display
How can i do it?
Thanks alot

A couple ideas. Not sure if you have Arena and can do some advanced output config. But that is one option.

Maybe a simpler option is to not focus on the shape. What I see is a full size layer in the back. Then a scaled down layer in front of it. So your Video Loops would go on the bottom layer. Then the layer 2 would be scaled down, and the Y position adjusted to align with the bottom of the screen. That way all clips in Layer 2 will play at that scale and location.

You also dont need to scale anything but use a crop effect on the top (U Shape) Layer...
