Preferences

There are four simple controls in the LooksBuilder Preferences pane. You can access the Preferences controls from the application menu on the Mac (LooksBuilder > Preferences) or in the Edit menu on Windows (Edit > Preferences).

Looks Preferences

Input/Output Processing
The Default mode displays the Look panel only; no adjustments besides those you add in the tool chain are available within LooksBuilder. Advanced mode adds three tabbed panels: Input, Preview and Output that allows you to access the underlying display and linearization transforms for the Looks engine. THESE CONTROLS ARE INTENDED FOR ADVANCED USERS THAT HAVE UNUSUAL COLOR WORKFLOWS OR MEDIA FORMATS.

Sample View Uses
Current Frame uses whatever frame is active and visible when LooksBuilder is launched (by clicking the Edit button in the effect controls). Sample Image displays a separate image provided by Looks for cases where the Current Frame or source clip makes fine adjustments difficult.

Look Theater Preferences
Look Theatre Hold Time sets the amount of time that each Look is previewed in the main window. The hold time can be between 0-10 seconds. The Transition Time designates the amount of time dedicated to the fade between Looks and can be up to 10 seconds.
