Wide blank space under Fusion nodes that I can't remove

PostSun Apr 27, 2025 11:24 pm

I have a tall blank space under the 'Nodes' panel of Fusion that I can't get rid of. Right cliking does not help. It's wasting a lot of space. I've attached an image.

Above the viewer, there is clips toggle. Turn it off. It seems you don't have any clips at the moment, but normally you should see clips thumbnails similar to clips thumbnails in color and deliver pagers. They allow you to switch in fusion page between differnt clips and copy and paste grades with middle mouse button, similar to color page. You can also use them to create new compositions, similar to versions inside the same fusion or clip container. If you don't use any of those features or don't need them at the moment, you can turn the clips panel off.

Thank you for this. I'm still sort of new to DR. While I like using it, it's not very intuitive and I have to go to Google for help every time I use it. So many things are just difficult to figure out on your own. But with time, I'll start to get up to speed. So now I know about the "clips" section and using the 'middle mouse' with it. Now just 100,000 other things to learn and I'll be an expert...lol... Thanks again.

Here is something usually better than google, a personal resolve google. Help menu in resolve has a search function that can help you highlight where what is in the menus. And there is a pdf for reference manual there as well. Have the pdf open and search for anything that is not clear. For example Fusion interface section would give a hint what is what.

Chapter 64 - Exploring the Fusion Interface

This chapter provides an orientation on the Fusion user interface, providing a quick tour of what tools are available, where to find things, and how the different panels fit together to help you build and refine compositions in this powerful node-based environment.

Fusion Fundamentals | Chapter 64 Exploring the Fusion Interface page 1171

Give manual a try. Its a reference manual as the name suggests and its an excellent reference. With a PDF reader its easy to search what you need.
