to properly view the Frame Work of 3840 x 540
( black narrow image dimensions ,...of Project Property settings )
Right Click the View WIndow and select :
"Simulate Device Aspect Ratio"
and Nothing else .


using 4 images , each at 1280 x 720
using 6 video Tracks

The original width of the 4 images is 4 * 1280 =to 5120
However , Movie Studio 14 Platinum only supports a width of 3840
Thus , each image is imported to the Time Line with Pixel aspect set to .7500
3840 / 5120 =to .75
Right click each image on the time line and choose Properties , to set pixel aspect to .75

Thus , 5120 * .75 is =to 3840
and we also need to adjust the Project Properties height :
720 * .75 is =to 540

Thus our original 4 source images of 5120 x 720 ,
will now fit perfectly into our Frame Work of 3840 x 540
with ,
No crop , No squeeze , No stretch


Project Properties is set to 3840 x 540 1.0000 square pixels

note that :
( 5120 * .75 ) / 540 is =to 64:9
3840 / 540 is =to 64:9

a progression of images gives these aspect ratios
1 image 16:9 1280 x 720
2 images 32:9 2560 x 720 approx 170 degrees
3 images 48:9 3840 x 720
4 images 64:9 5120 x 720 approx 320 degrees
5 images 80:9 6400 x 720 greater then 360 degress
6 images 96:9 7680 x 720

about 4.5 images shows a full 360

note :
64:9 is 7.1111 aspect ratio , 5120 x 720
64:9 is 7.1111 aspect ratio , 7680 x 1080
64:27 is 2.37037 aspect ratio , 2560 x 1080
21:9 is 2.3333 aspect ratio , 2520 x 1080
47:20 is 2.35 aspect ratio , 2538 x 1080
16:9 is 1.7777 aspect ratio , 3840 x 2160
16:9 is 1.7777 aspect ratio , 1920 x 1080

each width gets multiplied by the pixel aspect
that we set for each imported image .

and recall ,
Project Properties is set to :
3840 x 540 with 1.0000 square pixels .

from all the above , we now see the interaction of :

Imported Media pixel setting , ( .7500 )
Track Motion settings , ( 5120 * .7500 ) x 540 ( matches "Frame Work" of Project Property settings )
Project Property settings , ( 3840 * 1.0000 ) x 540 is the "Frame Work" of the project
