Setting Up Views for the Project

You can import your footage and let Nuke Studio create the views automatically or set up views in advance in the project settings. This allows you to process the individual views separately or both views together, and see the effect of your changes on each view.

If you are likely to need the same views in several projects, you may want to save the views you create in a template.nk script file. For more information on how to do this, see Template Scripts.

Creating Views Automatically

Note:  Automatic view creation is not implemented for multi-view .mov files. See Creating and Managing Views Manually for information on how to create the views.

1.   Import your multi-view files as normal. See Ingesting Media for more information.

The Create missing views? dialog displays.

2.   Click Add Views, Replace Views, or No:

Add Views - add the views in the incoming clip to those that exist in the project.

Replace Views - replace all existing project views with those in the incoming clip.

No - import the clip and display only the first view in the file, retaining any existing views in the project.

You can now access the views in your project from the view dropdown menu of certain Properties panel controls. You’ll also notice that each view has its own button in the Viewer controls.

Creating and Managing Views Manually

1.   Select Project > Edit Settings.
2.   Go to the Views tab. The available views are listed in the Views panel.

3.   If you want to remove the view called main and add views called left and right, click the Set up views for stereo button. The two views are assigned colors. To change the colors, double-click on the color field and select another color from the color picker that opens.
4.   Enable Use colors in UI to apply the selected color for each view to the associated button above the Viewer.
5.   If you want to add other new views, click the + button.
6.   To delete an unnecessary view, select the view from the list and click the - button.
7.   To move a view around in the list of views, click the up and down arrows above the views panel.

You can now access the views in your project from the view dropdown menu of certain Properties panel controls. You’ll also notice that each view has its own button in the Viewer controls.

Multi-View QuickTime Files

Multi-view .mov files only display one view by default. To enable all views in a multi-view .mov file:

1.   Double-click the .mov to display its Properties panel.
2.   Disable First track only.

You'll notice that the .mov in the bin is now marked with to denote multiple views.

3.   You can now switch between views using the buttons above the timeline Viewer.
