how to select language used in Frame Render script?

Hello,

How can I use a python script in Frame Render Script ?
How does fusion know which language is used in the frame render script ?
It seems to default to Lua even though I have python installed.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

The InTool scripts will always be Lua, but I believe you can use the cross-language techniques described in the Fusion 8 Scripting Guide:
https://documents.blackmagicdesign.com/ ... _Guide.pdf

Page 20.

I've never tried to run Python from there, but theoretically it should work.

After a harder look at it, that may not work after all, as I don't think the Intool scripts have access to the composition or fusion objects, so they likewise don't have access to Execute().

Nope, I was right the first time! Again, I don't have Python installed, so I can't verify, but...

edit: I do have Python installed on my work PC, although I don't have Fusion 16 or Resolve there:

But how to register in Frame Render Script to change Version (1,2,3,4,5,6)?

SirEdric's already answered this one at We Suck Less, but for the sake of anyone else who comes looking for the answer, the Versions are locked when rendering, so it's not possible to access information about them or set them from the Intool scripts.

It can be done with a normal script using [toolname]:GetCurrentSettings() to query which Version is currently loaded and [toolname]:SetCurrentSettings(int) to load one of the Versions.

Hello. Please tell me how to write to make it work. This is lua (Frame Render Script)
if (Mode == "Elastic") then
end
