Video scopes in a floating window
Additionally, the Audio Mixer and video scopes are available in many of the dual-screen layouts available in DaVinci Resolve. The video scopes aren’t just available in the Color page. They’re also available in the Media and Deliver pages for whenever you need to evaluate the video signal more objectively, such as when you’re setting up to capture from tape or scan from film, or when you’re setting up for output.
In the DaVinci Resolve single screen layout, the video scopes can be moved to a second computer display, if one’s available, and will disappear temporarily if you change pages or switch to
another application.
DaVinci Resolve User Interface Conventions
While each chapter covers the unique onscreen controls found in each page of DaVinci Resolve, this section summarizes how to use some of the more common controls you’ll see.
Contextual Menus
Nearly every panel on every page exposes additional functionality via contextual menus, which appear when you right-click on the appropriate item. Sometimes, different commands become available depending on whether you right-click the background of a particular panel, or directly on an item such as a still or node.
