I do agree that Fusion is anything but intuitive for relative newcomers to this kind of work.
I was looking for a similar solution and came across this thread. I didn't fully understand everything but after a little trial and error (using the information here) it is actually really simple, so thanks to everyone for contributing.
Just in case anyone is looking for an easy way, here's how it can be easily achieved with (I think!) the fewest steps. (I'm only writing this to simplify it for anyone at my level, which is definitely not expert!)
Just for clarity, here was my issue:
I have a livestream clip recording of an online workout with 7 other people. My screen is horizontally flipped, meaning the clock behind me and the "You" (which indicates my screen) is mirrored.
I have to copy the clip, add it to the track above, crop, position and horizontally flip it so it is the right way around.
As I have
So, I have Rectangle 1 going into Rectangle2 which in turn goes into Media in, which is my clip.
Rectangle 1 is inverted so that the "You" shows through (on the track below).
Rectangle2 is set to "Subtract" so that the inverted "ouY" is blocked from showing. This appears at the bottom of my screen from Google Meet, which means that when I horizontally flip the clip, the "You" is also flipped.
The actual clicks to achieve this was very few, but that was only after I read this thread and followed the advice.
Hope this helps anyone trying to achieve a similar result.
