You can toggle between the regular playback view and Comparison View in the Program
Monitor at any time. Let’s take a look at the new controls.
Reference Frame: The frame you are using as a reference or for automatic color matching.
Reference Position: The timecode for the reference frame.
Playhead Position: The timecode for the current frame.
Shot or Frame Comparison: Toggle between using another frame as a reference, or the
current state of the current frame. The latter option is useful when working on effects, as it
allows a constant “before-and-after” view when working with effects so your eyes can’t
adjust to the finished version.
Side by Side: View the two images separately, side by side.
Vertical Split: View the two images as a single vertically split screen, with a divider you
can drag to reposition.
Horizontal Split: The same as the Vertical Split option but now with a horizontal divider.
Swap Sides: Switch the left and right images.
Current frame: The frame you’re working on now.
