Reference Window consistently switches to Source Window

PostMon Mar 01, 2021 1:12 am

On Both 17 Final, and 17.1 B10 Studio on Windows 10.

In the edit page, I have the left window set to show reference picture. Whenever I adjust something in clip attributes (mostly scaling) with a clip in the timeline, the reference picture changes to source picture. I have to change back to reference picture. It will do it every time I go through this action.

Never seen the option to switch the Preview and Timeline windows around. But try turning off "Switch to Timeline After Edit" either in the Edit dropdown menu, or using the shortcut Alt+Shift+Q.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I just went to check to see if that was it, but now I can't re-create the issue.

It happened when I imported an XML, but now working on the project after restarting Resolve, it's working as intended. I'll have to look into this more.
