# Using the Full-Screen Player

The full-screen Player allocates the entire screen to the image. Use it when you want to maximize screen space for viewing shots, for example, while colour grading.

There are no playback controls available in the full-screen Player. Instead, you use hotkeys and mouse gestures to play shots, access both playheads, display two or more shots at the same time, and pan and zoom the image. You can also display the Storyboard, vectorscope, histogram, and waveform monitor. See Viewing Colour Distribution.

NoteThe histogram, vectorscope, and waveform monitors do not dynamically update when GPU is enabled. They retain the colour distribution of the image prior to GPU being enabled.

The full-screen Player is available from all menus except the Editing menus.

To use the full-screen Player:

1. From any menu in Lustre except the Editing menus, press Enter.

   The full-screen Player appears.

2. Use hotkeys or mouse gestures to play the shot, zoom in or out, pan the image, change the view, or switch playheads. You can also display the Storyboard, vectorscope, histogram, and waveform monitor. See Player Hotkeys for a list of the hotkeys and mouse gestures commonly used in the full-screen Player.
3. To exit the full-screen Player, press Enter again.
