The camera toolbar (camera view items)

All camera view items have a camera toolbar. The camera toolbar is available in live and playback mode and appears when you place the cursor inside a camera view item.

If you want to temporarily hide the camera toolbar when you move your mouse between view items, press and hold the CTRL key.

The icons you see in the toolbar depend on:

  • The products and features available to you.

  • Whether you’re viewing video in live or playback mode.

  • The features available for the type of camera shown in the view item.
