Composition Guides overlays rule-of-thirds lines and an optional center crosshair over the current image. It is intended for camera lineup, framing, and quick operator checks.

Controls

Control Type Default What It Does
Rule of Thirds bool On Shows vertical and horizontal thirds.
Center Crosshair bool On Shows a center mark.
Line Color color White Guide line color and alpha source.
Line Opacity float 0.65 Overall visibility.
Line Thickness float 2 px Thickness of guide lines.
Crosshair Size float 54 px Length of the center crosshair.
Crosshair Gap float 10 px Empty gap around the exact center.

Tips

  • Put this layer near the bottom of the stack if you want it visible over the final look.
  • Use a bright color for camera lineup, then bypass the layer for program output.
  • If the guide is too strong on bright content, lower Line Opacity before changing color.
