How to unlink or ungroup clips in color tab

PostTue Feb 02, 2021 12:44 pm

So in the color tab, clips from the same source automatically are linked or grouped together. They have a pink arrow at the lower right corner. When I apply a grade to one it effects them all. How do I unlink or ungroup so I can adjust them separately.

Not they're not. Groups are created manually.

Not sure what a pink arrow is for. The Grouped icon is a green chain link.

You probably have "Remote Grades" activated. Right click on a thumbnail in the Color Page and use "Copy grades to local" and then right click again and choose " Use local grades". It's worth reading about how these functions work in the excellent Resolve User Manual.

Yes they are! With Remote grades timeline clips are linked to shared source media files in the Media Pool and share the same grade.
Pink arrow indicates Remote Grades are in use.
