Planar Tracking Question in Fusion

PostMon Jun 18, 2018 10:34 pm

I'm confused which forum to place this question in since this is Resolve product.

It seems like the Match Move tool in the color tab is limited now since the Add Matte to Color Tab selection is gone from the pulldown menu.

Here is my question.

I finally figured it out! After watching like 10 Fusion Tracking videos on YouTube I got it to work. I will make a YT video as well to share what I learned. I will post it here when I am done.

Planar Tracking in Fusion - Resolve 15 Tutorial

I figured it out and as promised I am sharing my method with everyone else (even if I might be doing it wrong).

Good stuff Dave, thanks for making a video on it.

Here are some things I noticed:
  • A quick way to make an element fade in and out is to keyframe the Blend attribute in the Merge node.
  • You can insert or remove a node from the flow by holding SHIFT before you start dragging the node. This saves a lot of time.
  • Pressing 1 or 2 will do the same thing as clicking those little tiny round buttons.

I've been watching your videos for years, it's nice to see you here.

Great video Dave,

I've been trying to work the best way to catalog information while learning FUSION.

+) Going to FIRST FRAME of Clip in FUSION
Not sure if BM have a keyboard shortcut - you can press the ICON I've attached to the First Frame.

Curiously - there is (IMHO) a bug with the reciprocal button (to go to the last Frame) in that it seems to goto the Last Frame - 1!

In stand-alone Fusion, it used to be "Shift+[" to go to first frame and "Shift+]" to go to last.

This should be working in Resolve's Fusion too, but I don't have my compiter currently to test it.

it must be a specific problem (MAC?) because I can not reproduce your issue here. Sorry.
