 There are 30 projection zones which can be selected on the left side of the window. When you click on a zone in the left side, the tabs on the right allow you to view and adjust the parameters for each projection zone. To view and adjust the parameters, click on the **Geometric Correction, Preview, Beam Attenuation Map** or **Advanced** tab. There are 30 projection zones which can be selected on the left side of the window.

 +**Auto Mesh**

 +As of QS 5.2 you can use the "Auto Mesh" tool which allows you to mesh your zone into place instead of using geometric correction, this will help users out a lot with off axis graphic projection.

-When the **Prevent master size and master position** check box is checked, it will make it so that the **Master Size and Master Position** controls in the **Projector Settings** window do not affect the output of this zone.+When the **Prevent master size and master position** check box is checked, it will make it so that the **Size and Position** controls in the **Projector Settings** window do not affect the output of this zone.
  
 When the **Prevent 3D settings and Showtime effects** check box is checked, it will make is so that the output of this zone is not affected at all by any effect that would cause beam frames to no longer hit their intended targets. For example, if you painstakingly adjusted the position of a beam to precisely hit a mirror, you would not want the position of this beam to be affected in any way. The two options above ensure that even if you mistakenly use affects that would change the position, or accidentally change the Master Size settings, these beams will continue to hit their intended targets. When the **Prevent 3D settings and Showtime effects** check box is checked, it will make is so that the output of this zone is not affected at all by any effect that would cause beam frames to no longer hit their intended targets.
