set LightWave to render the even or odd fields first.
Exercise 5.2 Working with Aspect Ratios
To give you an idea of how the different aspect ratios work, open LightWave v9 Layout and
perform the following steps.
1. Clear the scene from the File drop-down menu. Then, select Camera View in the
selection drop-down at the top of the Layout window (Figure 5.5).

Figure 5.5 Resolution and the results of setting the pixel aspect ratios can be seen only
through the Camera view in Layout.
Remember that, although resolution settings can be seen directly in Layout, you
won??™t see the stretching due to an incorrect aspect in Layout. Rather, Layout
merely shows you what portions of the scene will be in the rendered image. It is
the projection of this image on the display device that causes the stretching, if any.
2. To make sure that Show Safe Areas is selected, press the d key to enter the Display
Options tab within the Preferences panel.
3. Select Show Safe Areas under the Camera View tab at the bottom of the interface,
as shown in Figure 5.6.
Figure 5.6 Selecting Show Safe Areas on the Display Options tab turns on a visible outline
through the Camera view in Layout.
