Bug with fusion effect slider value
Posted: Wed May 07, 2025 4:12 amThe fusion effect values in the Inspector should always reflect the values where the timeline cursor is, not what the cache system is exploring in the background.
I put a clip on the timeline, drop a fusion effect on it that exposes a slider control value. I keyframe the slider value at three points 1.0 at the start, 0.278 in the middle, 1.0 near the end.
Then I go back to the start value, and adjust it to 0.9.
While I'm thinking about my next change, caching begins. And suddenly the slider is animating across a range of values, even though the timeline cursor is not moving. And when caching finishes, the slider value displayed is 1.0. That's not correct - my timeline cursor is still at the start where the value should be 0.9. Grr! I say. But if I move the timeline cursor away and back again, I do see the 0.9.
