Precautions when selecting FULL/PART

This function compares screens with the same input terminal and same format. If different input formats, or if signals are input between different input channels, the sub-window (left side, still image) becomes blurred and blanking occurs. However, if the same format signals are input into the input terminal when acquiring the still image, the images will be displayed correctly.
