Resolve V15 to Fusion V9 issue

There is an issue when pasting nodes from Resolve V15 to standalone Fusion 9. Any pasted polygon type masks will have Filter state disabled completely which is not something you can even do using the UI. This results in non-antialiased masks regardless of the Soft Edge value.

The reason is that Resolve 15 Fusion defaults to Fast Gaussian filter which the standalone Fusion 9 does not have. When you paste you have to go through all affected nodes and update filtering.

If you're going to be moving back and forth between v9 and Resolve or v16, I recommend setting a default for all tools with a Filter control to use Gaussian in order to better preserve backward compatibility.

But for existing comps:

Code: Select all

for i, tool in ipairs(comp:GetToolList()) do
    if tool.Filter then
        tool.Filter = "Gaussian"
    end
end


Surely everyone uses /for slash commands by now (https://www.steakunderwater.com/wesuckl ... 260#p14260), so you can simply type:

Code: Select all

/for all set Filter to "Gaussian"

or even better would be:

Code: Select all

/for all where Filter == "Fast Gaussian" set Filter to "Gaussian"

which would skip everything that is set to something other than Fast Gaussian already.

The Lua is so second nature to me now that I never even thing about /for!

Hey there,

Sorry to pop in resurrecting this thread but I'm missing something - probably basic - here, while I'm really interesting in Fu9 adaptation from Fu16 and/or ReFusion 16.x

I think I had the same issue, see : I made a macro from a few nodes in ReFusion 16 and it appeared that inside the macro, a glow node wasn't interpretable in Fu9. Don't remember if it was a softglow, fastglow, glow, etc...

Anyway, I rebuild this macro in Fu9 to have it work everywhere but I'm interested in this Filter trick I read here...
I have no Fu here around so what am I supposed to do and where, please ?

Fu16 defaults to "Fast Gaussian" for its Filter parameters in tools such as Blur and Glow, as well as for the Softness filer in effect masks. That mode doesn't exist in Fu9.

Use one of the above procedures to convert all Filters from "Fast Gaussian" to "Gaussian" in one fell swoop.

Thx a lot, but I was just wondering ... where to put/paste that code, especially LUA one

You can paste it into the Console, or save it with the .lua extension and put it in your scripts/comp folder, then run it from the Script menu.

Ok, thank you guys, sorry about that; I'm not retarded -though that question looked like I was - but I had a few issues with the console window + another one with the app WingPersonnal open aside...
Thx again
