I can't figure out how to change the perspective on an input. I want to overlay a video into a picture of a studio, but the video will be on a side wall, so the right hand edge will be taller, and the left hand edge smaller. All I can seem to do is crop, zoom and move it on a horizontal or vertical plane.

I note that in the multiview window there are preset options that allow a little bit of that, though I can't seem to adapt those presets to my liking. Do I need to create a "vmix layout file" and import it?

@ grDancer

doggy is correct, it is the [Z] button that cycles through the XYZ rotation parameters with each mouse click.
(not always obvious, but you don't know what you don't know until you know)

Ah, many blessings be upon you Doggy. This is the magical button I had not seen. Thank you so much.
