The Viz button refers to the currently configured Viz Engine preview channel and its Graphic Hub connection. By clicking the Viz button, Director is able to show the different scenes, images, objects, materials and fonts available to Viz Engine.

The Viz panel (aka the treeview browser) also has a range of buttons/tabs that displays different views of different items/objects available to Viz Engine. The display area shows the directory and the contents of the currently selected folder. Below there are some options for refreshing the views and sorting the order of the listed items.

Note: Viz images can be played out as fullscreen stillstore images; however, this requires a still store scene. See Enable Fullscreen Stillstore Images.
