Two recorder windows for grading?

Hi...

Is it possible to have two windows, each with a different clip from the timeline it?

If you want to grade a bunch of clips for continuity, you'd want to be able to have them in the timeline, apply your color correction filters, and then tweak them while having the clip you have chosen to match displayed in a second window...

If you double click one clip for it to open into the player window, you cannot interactively tweak any filters applied to it...

Is there a way to do this?
I hope I'm making sense...

Ok, I'm not sure why I did not think of this straight away, but of course if you grade something to then use as your reference for grading the rest of the shots of a sequence, there is nothing preventing you from opening that reference clip in the player, and then tweaking all your color corrections on subsequent clips in the recorder...

It is dawning on me that perhaps, I might be an idiot.

(copied from color correcting in edius)
In all the canopus cc filters on the right side there is a preview box
6 buttons and a box with percentage.

Now this preview gives you the ability to do color correcting
1 match shot
2 before and after

1 match shot
apply the filter to the clip you want to correct.
open the filter
scroll (with playhead) the shot you want as the master (good color)
press the first button on the preview box
Bring the playhead back to the clip you want to correct.
Now press the the buttons in the preview box which give split screens (horizontal and vertical). Have a look at your broadcast monitor. Play with the percentages and marvel :)

2 I think you can figure this one out now :)
