Settings

The items in this group box control the general settings of the solar study.

View

Sets the view in which to render the solar study.

Resolution

The X field sets the image's horizontal resolution. The Y field sets the image's vertical resolution. If you key in a value in either the X or Y field, the other field changes so that the view's aspect ratio is maintained.

No. of Frames

Sets the number of frames in the sequence.
