Screens & Mapping

Which statement is true?

• A 3D object can only be imported as a Projection Screen.
• A 3D object can only be imported as LED.
• A 3D object can be imported either as a projection screen and/or as an LED.
• It is not possible to import a 3D object.

Is it possible to assign a projection screen directly to an output?

• No, the screen has no HDMI input
• Yes, but in Output routing you have to press "Ctrl+Alt+F4" while dragging the connection.
• Yes, you just have to draw the connection correctly in the output routing.
• No, a projection screen always needs a projector.

Why is nothing shown on the output when a projector points to a display in Pixera? (multiple answers)

• The projector is too weak - a higher lumen number must be selected.
• A projector needs a projection screen - just like in the real world.
• A projector cannot point on a display and render it out.
• The display must be switched off, otherwise nothing can be seen in the preview.

How do you activate snapping between screen objects (LED, Displays, Screens,...) and how does it work? (multiple answers)

• By repeatedly pressing the shortcut , you can switch between horizontal and vertical snapping.
• Snapping is always active, you do not need to activate it.
• You have to combine the shortcut with the arrow keys to switch between vertical and horizontal snapping.
• Snapping can be activated with the "Ctrl" key, as long as an object is held with the middle mouse button.
• Snapping can be activated via the "Shift" key as long as an object is held with the left mouse button.

Where can you find the "video/pixel mapping" for remapping LEDs in Pixera?

• It is in the compositing tab when you dive into the LED.
• In the Mapping tab you can dive into the LED, there you can do this remapping.
• This "video mapping" can be found in the Warping tab, next to the projectors.

What can be done if an LED is too big for an output (e.g. LED = 4000x200Px; Output = 1920x1080Px)?

• This scenario is not possible in Pixera.
• The LED must be scaled down to fit the FHD output.
• A second output must always be used.
• By "video mapping" the LED, theoutput can be rearanged so that all the content fits on the FHD Output
• There are no LED's that large.

If a projector sees multiple screens, can they be warped individually?

• Yes, for each screen that a projector sees, a mapping is created that can be warped.
• No, there is only one mapping per projector, no matter how many screens the projector sees.
• No, it is only one projector

Which 3D formats can be imported to Pixera? (multiple answers)

• .gltf
• .obj
• .step
• .dxf
• .fbx

What can be achieved with the following symbol (dive in) (multiple answers)

• The "video mapping" for LED's can be opened up.
• Compositing view of Softedge.
• Inner compositing (compositing view) can be opened.
• You can dive into a screen to see the insides of Pixels

What are the advantages of the "Feed Areas" option for simple projections? (multiple answers)

• Softedge can be generated automatically by Pixera.
• Pixera creates the whole warping automatically.
• Pixera linearizes the warping so that the raster size is the same everywhere.
• Pixera helps to achieve a successful warp more easily.
• Pixera automatically splits the screen into equal parts for the projectors.
