Overlay image with highlighting
This preset lets you display an image dimmed, with a rectangle inside of the image undimmed, i.e. highlighted. With midi-learning, you can control the position and size of both the image and the highlighted area with the mouse.
You can automate the opacity to make the outer part of an image appear or disappear. You can set the opacity to zero and automate the edge parameters to make an image grow or shrink without zooming. How to midi-learn: https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=217581 Code:

Its kind of a vignette effect with a sharp rectangle. And again its a very unconventional contribution from you, kite.
Many thanks.

Haha, yeah, I'm pretty unconventional
It would be nice if there was a knob to turn that somehow made all the edges less sharp. With the background opacity set to zero, this is actually a simple cropping effect. In the OP I changed the name to reflect that. I figured out an easy way to have multiple highlights. You put the image on a track with a highlighted area. Then you control-drag the image to duplicate it in another track directly beneath it. In the 2nd track, you set the bg opacity to zero and set the highlighted area to somewhere different. If you then select both images, you can use the mouse to zoom and pan the whole thing, and you can also resize both highlight areas in sync.
