===Windows===

===Message Window===
The Message Window shows statistics and other important information
when rendering.

===Text Editor Window===
The Text Editor Window is used to edit scene and include files. It
does syntax coloring, auto-indenting, and supports tabs, and lets you
assign your own markers in the file, using the Marker
popup menu. It also offer quick navigation using the
include popup menu, declared popup
menu and macro popup menu (f).

===Render Preview Window===
The Render Preview Window shows the final image being rendered. There
will be one Preview Window for each scene, but there cannot be multiple
Preview Windows for one scene.
[[Image:MacImgPreviewwindow.png|Image Preview Window]]
The Selection toggle in the upper right can be on (shown above) or off.
When it is on, you can drag out a selection area on the Preview
Window, and the next time you render, just that selected area will be
rendered. To turn this feature off and render the whole image, click the
Selection toggle to turn it off. Also with the selection mode off, you
can drag the image itself out of the window and drop it as a clipping
onto the desktop, or into another image application that expects PICTs
to be dropped into it directly. If the selection mode is on, you can
hold down the shift key and drag the selected area out as a PICT
clipping.
The Alpha-channel toggle in the lower left can be on (shown above) or off.
When it is on, any part of the scene that has partial or full
alpha-channel transparency will be displayed as a grayscale checkerboard
showing through the scene. Leaving this feature on can slow down display
and rendering somewhat. To turn this feature off, click the
Alpha-channel Toggle to turn it off.
The Dither toggle in the lower left can be on or off (shown above).
If it is on, the image will be dithered to the screen. This is most
useful if you only have a 256 color or thousands of colors display. The
image colors will be "smoothed", and not look blocky and banded. If you
have you monitor set to millions of colors, you can leave this off, as
it will not change the display at all. Leaving dithering off also can
speed up the display somewhat.
The Image Size popup lets you change the displayed size of the image.
Note that this does not change the size of the final saved image file,
just how you see it on the screen. The popup menu lets you choose from
several different sizes.
There are some shortcuts to setting certain image sizes. Holding down
the control and command keys while pressing the 1, 2, 3, or 4 keys will
change the image size to 100%, 200%, 300%, or 400%. You can now scroll
the image window with the arrow keys. Holding down the shift key while
arrow-scrolling will scroll faster.
Note: If you choose a percentage less than 100% in the
Preview Window's Image Size popup menu, then POV-Ray will not be able to
display every pixel as it is rendered, since each dot is now smaller
than a pixel. Instead, POV-Ray will refresh the entire window every few
minutes or so.

===Templates Window===
The Templates Window allows a convenient way to browse and insert
templates that come with POV-Ray. You can simply drag & drop
templates from the window into text editor.
[[Image:MacImgTemplateswindow.gif|Templates Window]]
In addition to viewing, the template window allows searching for
templates by name. Note that the search options see in the image may not
be available in your version of POV-Ray.
Note: The Templates Window is only available is you are
running Mac OS 8.6 or newer with CarbonLib 1.6 or newer!
