Screen Coordinates

The Kayak Digital Picture Manipulator accommodates two different aspect
ratios, 4 x 3 and 16 x 9, selectable via the Video Standards menu. In 4 x 3
mode, the screen is six units high and eight units wide. In 16 x 9 mode, the
screen is 18 units high and 32 units wide. The numbering system begins in
the center of the screen, and has the standard horizontal X axis and the ver-
tical Y axis (

Figure 42

). For simplicity, examples in this manual use the 4 x

3 aspect ratio.

These coordinates can be used for monitor screen locations (channel target
space with default global channel), or they can be applied to picture loca-
tions (channel source space).

Screen units are also used to define Z axis dimension depth in 3-D space.
Positive Z axis values are back behind the picture, and negative values are
in front of the picture (

Figure 43

).
