Adjusting the x/y position of the DVE

You can independently adjust the x and y positions of the DVE using the position X and Y

settings, or you can tie X and Y parameters together so adjusting one will automatically adjust

the other. To achieve this, simply enable the ‘tie X and Y’ setting.

This also applies to the size parameters.

DVE parameters

Size X Adjusts the horizontal size of the DVE.

Size Y Adjusts the vertical size of the DVE.

Reset DVE Resets the DVE to screen. Useful if you lose track of the

DVE during adjustment.
