The main window can be broken up into 3 major sections:
Preview Area -- Top part of the window
This area of the window shows a preview of what the shot looks like.
Shot Elements -- Bottom Left of the window
This area is where you select the elements to edit within the shot.
You can also modify whether the shot element is visible here.
Edit Panels -- Bottom Right of the window
This Tab area holds all of the configuration panels.
The tabs that are available in this area changed depending on the type of element that is currently selected.
In the above example, the Main element is selected, and the only panel available is the Scene panel.
How to find information on the panels
The rest of the chapters related to editing are centered around the various panels.
