Advanced Projection Setup
The Advanced Projection mode is enabled by checking the checkbox in the Mbox Remote Preferences window.
(Open the Remote Preferences window by clicking the Edit Servers button on the main window or pressing [
,] on
the keyboard.)
Projection > Output Setup
In Advanced Projection mode, the Output Setup tab is the same except for the addition of a field for entering a model
(i.e. object) file for use as the keystone rendering surface. The model used must be compatible with Mbox (obj, topo,
svg) and must be placed within the standard Mbox/Models folder's 8-bit structure. The model is selected by typing
the 8-bit folder and file index numbers in to the field (e.g. 005.023) and pressing the [return] key.
Note: Different models can be selected for each output of a multihead configuration.
Selecting a model as the keystone surface will immediately disable any keystone or warp settings that have been
used. To return to the keystone/warp settings, delete the model index number from the field and press [return].
CAUTION!
Using the features of the Output Setup tab will also override or disable some or all of the features of the
Projection > Drawing Setup and Projection > Camera Setup tabs. To use the features on these tabs properly, you
must remove the basic output settings by selecting Clear Output Settings from the Options pop-up while the
Projection > Output Setup tab is selected.
Projection > Drawing Setup
The Drawing Setup tab allows you to configure which on-screen elements will be rendered using the perspective of
the active camera for that output, and if models will be used for creating shuttering or keystone rendering.
Click the appropriate checkbox to enable perspective rendering for each element: Objects (obj, topo, svg), Shutters
(when a shutter model index number is entered), and the keystone surface (when a keystone model index number is
entered).
