DR20 (Studio) Shorts Effects Workspace Layout

PostSat Jun 14, 2025 11:06 am

Before Davinci Resolve 20 Studio (prior to Parameters being added) I had my Effects in ribbon (or wide) format. I cannot see any tutorials (YouTube) advising how I can return to this format in DR20. I know how to create format Shorts videos, and how to switch Meters, Sound Library, Mixer etc off & on. I am keen to have my Effects Toolbox expanded as a preset ongoing. Can someone please advise how I can implement this format? I have attached a png showing what I am requesting. Thank you in advance.

Version 20 offers a new Workspace for Vertical timelines. That's what you're seeing there.

You can disable this new feature under Preferences>User>UI Settings...
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.

Hi everyone, I'm not wishing to disable this feature, I am actually wanting this layout as pictured back. I use a desktop PC with dual monitor and I am used to playing around with various features.

I have DR20 Studio and I had this layout pictured (wide ribbon toolbox) before DR20. The Effects Toolbox was sitting in Shorts where 'Parameters' has been introduced. I don't wish to use Parameters but wish to expand my Effects Toolbox back to the way it is pictured here.

I have been using Davinci Resolve since studio 17. I have tried changes with UI and it hasn't bought back the wider ribbon Effects Toolbox. I hope someone out there has figured this out for those like me that are requesting this feature layout.

Thank you in advance

A friend of mine in the U.K. has stated that this version of Effects Workspace is currently available in the Single screen mode, which I have tested and seen this is the case.

My question now is when will BlackMagic Design be hopefully rolling this out to Dual Screen mode?
