Project basics : Setting project properties
 
Setting project properties
Project Properties serve as your template for your movie projects. The project settings in the Project Properties dialog box determine the appearance and quality of a project when it is previewed on-screen.
The project properties are based on a profile. You can use an existing profile or create a custom profile. For more information about custom profiles, see Creating custom profiles.
To modify project properties
1 Click Settings > Project Properties.
2 Choose the appropriate setting options in the Project Properties dialog box.
3 Click OK.
When customizing project settings, it is recommended that you make the settings the same as the attributes of the video footage that will be captured to avoid distorting the video images and can help prevent jumping frames. However, preview performance might decrease for projects with high resolution files, depending on the system specifications.
