If you bring up the gate UI and swipe to the player options (south) you can turn off the manipulators in any player view.
Is this what you are looking for?

I just installed Toxik today and boy is it slow. As soon as I add a reaction node it goes to pot. Any thoughts? I added a new SATA drive and installed the software on there. That is also where my mediacache is. I also moved the footage I was working with to the same drive. I upped my VM as well to like 4 gigs. I have a P4 2.8ghz with 4 gigs of ram, and I am using a Quadro FX 3450. Any thoughts?
Hi
If you experience the main slow down in Reaction then this is most likely because by default your player is set to view in software and you are therefore getting the performance that the CPU is getting you. If you switch to ‘Interactivity’ in the player options you will then be using the Quadro FX to work in Reaction.
The other reason that you may be experiencing slow performance is that it is also recommended that you have a dual processor or dual core machine to get the most out of Toxik and its multi-threaded architecture. As suggested above, if it is possible you should also put the mediacache on a separate drive/array to the application and media to increase the read/write performance.
Hope this helps.
