Center Mark

Screen Center Mark: Displays a special marker at the center of the image.

• For optical lenses, this is the center of the screen.
• For video images, this is the center of the video image.
• For images from bitmapped files, this is the center of the bitmap, or the center of the currently selected bitmap if multiple images are loaded.

Set Color: select a different color for the center mark.

To avoid confusion, set the center mark to a different color than the reference point.
