well, coming from quantel, we have two different tools:
one is the "safe area" described as an aspect ratio from the user, recently improved to 4 digits, range from about 1.000 to 4.000, so if i want to do a proper dci showcase i can punch 2.386 and is good to go. do i work for hateful 8? punch 2.770 (or whatever it was) and you are good to go.
once you set your master value you have two other reticle expressed as percentage of the main aspect, default to [90,90]% and [80,80]% and you can easily change them both axes lindependently, so, if you want to see the center 1.778 extracting from a 2.390 geometry, you can easily set your main geometry, set one of the two lines as x=74 y=100 and you have it. very very easy.
the other approach basically is giving you a pixel count for those cases when you have a special extraction: let's say (Tarantino again) that you shoot that silly aspect ratio but on top you need to extract a very specific number of pixel, we had to retain the whole 6k original but show only the extraction (with the safe area). once we scaled down in pixel for the 4k presentation was easy peasy....
