Adding Your Own Entry to the proxySet Pop-Up Menu You can define your own proxy set to appear in this menu via a .h file. This automatically sets the paths and sizes for each set. You can also declare a proxy set for a specific FileIn during browsing. A predefined proxy set looks like this: DefProxyGroup("4K Fullap", DefBasePath( "../4096x3112/."), DefProxyPath("../2048x1556/.", .50, 1., GetDefaultBytes(), "Auto", 0, 1, 0, "4096x3112|2048x1556"), DefProxyPath("../1024x778/." , .25, 1., GetDefaultBytes(), "Auto", 0, 1, 0, "4096x3112|1024x778"), DefProxyPath("../410x366/." , .10, 1., GetDefaultBytes(), "Auto", 0, 1, 0, "4096x3112|410x366") ); baseDefaultFile This is used when you bring in pre-rendered proxies before loading in the fullresolution elements. It is assumed you are using a standardized naming convention. Therefore, by using this naming convention, Shake can establish the name of the full resolution elements, based on the name of the proxy you supplied. Opening the baseDefaultFile subtree reveals three more parameters: • baseDefaultFileType: The anticipated file type of the full resolution element. • baseDefaultAlwaysAdd: Whether to add this into the FileIn. • baseDefaultReplace: Lets you replace strings in the first loaded proxy set to be replaced by a second string, taking the format: source|replace;source|replace. For example, if you always have _lr at the end of a low-resolution file name and _hr at the end of a high-resolution file name, you could use _hr|_lr to automatically change myfile_hr to myfile_lr for that proxy set. proxyNDefaultFile The default file path for each of the four proxy sets you can specify. Relative paths are relative to the image read in with a FileIn. The proxyNDefaultFile subtree has six additional parameters: • proxyNDefaultScale: The setting for that proxy set, also setting P1, P2, and so on. For example, proxy1 is P1. • proxyNDefaultRatio: The Y scaling for that proxy set. If working with pre-rendered elements and with anamorphic elements, be sure that this setting reflects the height-to-width relationship between the proxy and base files as they actually exist on disk. See "Anamorphic Images and Pre-Generated Proxies" on page 155. • proxyNDefaultFileType: When pre-rendering your proxy files, they are stored in this format. This has no effect with on-the-fly proxies. Chapter 4 Using Proxies 165
