Display General

Sets the size of the display LUT loaded by the col-
orspace toolbar.

notice artifacts on
the canvas when your
LUT size is too small.
Increase the size of
the LUT here.
Display General

Center F-Stop
entry box,

Sets the center F-Stop value for when the Gain
reset button is clicked.

Sets the location of the default LUT file that is
loaded by the colorspace toolbar.
LUT Defaults
|
Extrapolate
checkbox
Sets whether extrapolation is enabled by default.
If enabled, the GPU extrapolates the grid values
or clamps to the maximum value of the LUT.
Data
Autosave
|
Autosave
Frequency (Mins) entry box,
incrementers
Sets how frequently (in minutes) Mari automati-
cally saves your work.
Cache
|
Thread Count
entry box,
slider
Sets the number of free threads that are available
for background tasks.
These are in addition
to the dedicated data
management threads
(of which there are
three per cache direc-
tory).
Cache
|
Max Memory
entry box,
incrementers
Sets the maximum amount of memory Mari uses
for the DDI cache blocks. You can't set this to a
value higher than 80% of the memory you have
available (rounded to the nearest half-GB). For
example, if you have 6GB of memory available,
you can't set
Max Memory
to a value higher than
4.5GB. This is to avoid using all the physical mem-
ory available.
DDI is the data cach-
ing system used in
Mari.
The Reset (R) icon
resets the maximum
memory value to 2
GB.
Cache
| Check Drive Space
entry box,
slider
Sets the interval, in seconds, that the cache
drives are checked for sufficient disk space.
Channel Cache
| Resolution Mode
dropdown
Determines if Mari caches at the given channel’s
resolution or a lower proxy level. Setting this to
Fixed uses the Default resolution and Type listed
below.
This can speed up the
caching process if
you don’t require the
full resolution of the
channel to be cached.
Channel Cache
| Default Resolution
dropdown
If the Resolution Mode is set to Fixed, Mari
caches at the selected resolution.
This can save time
when caching large
patches if you don’t
require the full reso-
lution while working.
