Cannot move masked object in fusion without moving mask.

PostSun Sep 25, 2022 7:12 pm

If I put a rectangle mask in the middle of the screen and use the mask to constrain text, sure enough any text that falls outside the mask is cropped and not visible. This is what I expect.

However, if I try to do the same with an image, the only way I know to move the image is with a transform node. The problem is that the transform node also moves the mask so the result is that the image is always completely visible.

So, guess my question is how do I move an image without moving the mask.

Thanks

Connect the mask to the transform node, select the transform node, go to the inspector in the settings tab and enable the "Multiply by Mask" checkbox.
