"Apply Grade" Is Not Working in Build 27

PostTue Apr 29, 2025 8:09 pm

20 Beta Build 27 (Beta 2) - Apply Grade no longer works from a powergrade in the Color page. I can "Append Node Graph" just fine, but Apply Grade does not work. The node blinks when I try to Apply Grade, but nothing happens.

Change to the Media Page, then back to the Color page. See if that "wakes up" the copy color grade (center mouse click) function.

If that doesn't work, you can try right-clicking on the original color clip (the source) and choose Apply Grade. See if that works.

I agree that this mode occasionally goes a bit stupid. I've also had this happen with the Shift+ and Shift- controls, which I have programmed into a Streamdeck macro keyboard. This issue goes back a few years, but it's intermittent and difficult to solve. I've had it work for 10-12 hours on end without a problem, then occasionally run into it twice in one day.

I’m just referring to applying a grade from my Powergrades bin. It just doesn’t work and is clearly a beta bug.

Copying a grade from clip to clip works fine. I can record my screen tomorrow.

I find it working fine here in Studio 20b2 for Windows.

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
