Shared nodes not working inside Compound nodes

PostSat Feb 13, 2021 7:57 pm

Hi, not sure if this is specific to just DR17 (I'm on b8 in Windows 10), but let me explain a problem I'm having.

On a clip I'm grading, I've created a shared node, let's say 'Shared Node 1' inside a compound node. I then exit the compound node and create a copy Shared Node 1 in the main graph - albeit disconnected from anything. My goal is to use is as a global on/off switch for the node inside the compound by enabling/disabling it from the main clip graph. On the clip I set that up in - all works as expected. When I disable the solo Shared Node 1 in the main tree, it disables the Shared Node 1 inside the compound.

The problem is when I copy the grade to another shot. Inside the compound, it is no longer acts like a shared node - just a regular node. And disabling the Shared Node 1 in the main clip graph no longer has any effect on the one inside the compound.

I've created a simple .drx to show the problem I'm having -

If anyone could try it - apply it to a clip, test turning off the shared node. Should work fine. Then copy the grade to a new clip and try the same.

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks!
