The following is a table of examples.
Using and Customizing Viewers
Shake displays the currently selected image for your project in the Viewer, located in
the Viewer workspace at the upper-left quadrant of the interface. Additional controls in
the Viewer shelf at the bottom of the Viewer workspace let you customize how the
image is displayed. For example, you can view each channel of an image individually.
You can also change the Gamma of the Viewer to simulate how the image might look
on other output devices. Other tools such as the Histogram and Plot Scanline Viewer
scripts can help you analyze your image.
Some nodes feature onscreen controls (which also appear in the Viewer) that let you
make adjustments to an image. For example, the Move 2D and Rotate nodes display
transformation controls you can drag to manipulate the image directly in the Viewer.
Other nodes make additional tools available in the Viewer shelf. For example, the
RotoShape node places drawing and editing tools in the Viewer shelf that let you create
and manipulate shapes directly in the Viewer.
