full screen Fusion preview

hello my friends
actually im tired of searching for a function that allow me to have fullscreen preview in fusion section
does any body know if its exist in fusion?
its very annoying if such an important tool does not exist in this software!!!!

How many screens do you have at your disposal?
In previous versions F4 would fullscreen a viewer if I recall correctly. In recent incarnations this isn't the case anymore. But you can render a preview that you can watch fullscreen or if you have a second screen you can use that as a fullscreen preview by pressing 3 and the selected node will show up on that second screen.

Right click on node that you want to preview>Create play/preview>rightView.
Hit enter to render at the dialog box promt.
When done, right click on right viewer and select loop, then play, then fullscreen.

If you're using the Fusion built into Resolve, and you have a second display, you can turn on "video clean feed" in the workspace menu. Then, you'll get a third viewer, accessible via the "3" key and see an extra dot under all the nodes. Unfortunately, as with the rest of Resolve's Fusion UI implementation, there's plenty of broken-ness that we're hoping R17 will address. In my setup, "scale to fit" doesn't work correctly, probably because one of my screens is high-dpi and the other isn't. It trips up houdini, also.

Yet another inconsistency in DVR functionality. Strange to find those in a such a profound piece of software...

Hardly strange. its part of its long history, of differnt companies doing differnt things for differnt people in different industries. When they merged long re-writing and integration process begun. Since you don't seem to be aware of history of these applications and only come in lately, you don't realize how things were, why, and how much integration has improve,d and also sacrificed a lot of functions.

I totally understand that. But having come from other pro-software some basic things that work there and don't in DVR just puzzle me. You know, I got used to those. But the more I learn DVR, the more I come to the conclusion that no one just asked for such things to be implemented OR even that the dev team just ignores the requests as such (which I really doubt). I see how complex the software is - DVR alone can compare with 4 (FOUR) Adobe's products, some of which even don't stand a chance against the Blackmagic beast. But at the same time not seeing some basic, logical features, that ought to be there... well.

Its just I think differnt development history and mindset and users. In Adobe world things work one way, in 3D studio max they work another way, in Resolve/fusion yet another way, as they do in Fair light etc. I mean you can say why doesn't Photoshop have 3D system for compositing like fusion? It would be something to expect for number one image editing program, Why doesn't Premier have a native noise reduction feature. etc. Why is After Effects not supporting native 32 bit float in all its tools? etc. Why is fusion not able to have full screen preview with a single monitor? Why is Fusion this or that.

While its impossible to find one program that has it all the way people are used to it, the chances are that these programs are decades old used by hundreds of thoughts if not millions of people and most of what we see in digital space have been created with them. But they all have their own differnt development cycles and over those period different people ask for differnt things. For example in Fusion there are native tools for which you need several really expensive third party plug ins in After Effects. Things fusion users take for granted. Cloners and duplicate tools. Support for float and integer. 3D tools that just were recently added to After effects but were in fusion since forever. etc.

My advice, take the programs for what they, learn to make most of it, leverage what is there and over time you will probably learn that there is no one program that does it all, but you don't have to use one program for everything.

In regards to full screen. In my case I only use two monitors , but I would typically send the feed to second monitor for preview or use floating window in fusion studio. And in resolve I woudl preview it from color/edit page.

...or viewer in a floating window if I need to have one more window. Before Blackmagic took over fusion there was more customization in the UI, but its been conformed to resolve language with more fixed UI design. Still you can do some things.

While I would not mind having a dedicated preview option for single monitor like in resolve edit / color pages, I am used to how it works now and it works.

Hi, KrunoSmithy
I never get tired of reading your replies and finding them really reasonable and explanatory. Couldn't agree more with you. And since this forum is for sharing opinions and requesting features that will make the software better in one way or the other, I do my part in adding requests from the position of a video editor having come from the rival camp. I really think this feature should be added since it's basic in many other programs. Unfortunately I'm deprived of the luxury of having a second monitor - actually haven't had the need for that for all my 15 years of working in that sphere. So a nice touch like this would make DVR even better, I'm sure.

Fair enough.

By the way. Here is a little script I found, and you might find useful. Or rather was released on other forum labs the other day. Very useful. Its a script to easily change parameters of selected nodes. We had that in the past with other scripts and if you work smartly usually its not a big deal, but its useful feature to have it in this new form. Very easy to use. Probably more people should use it/ test it. If you can't download it, I think you need to be logged into the forum.

New tool by eklektyczny

Propagate captures parameter changes on the active node and propagates them
to selected nodes.

Features:

Simple window-based interface
Captures parameter changes on press and applies on command
Ignores complex table-type parameters

Usage:

Select 2 or more nodes
Press I to open the window
Make parameter changes to the active node
Click "Apply Changes" to propagate to all selected nodes
Press ESC to cancel

TODO:

should work with Loaders' Clip

Put those files in Config:/Propagate/

https://www.steakunderwater.com/wesuckl ... php?t=7449

v0.2 - 2025-04-27
- Improved table parameter handling (process simple tables, skip nested tables)
- More consistent value comparison across parameter types
- Fixed detection of changes when switching to/from default values
- Added special handling for Loader tools and Clip parameters
- Iterates all tool inputs for universal change detection

Why do you need a second monitor? You can use your primary monitor.

You mean I can undock the viewer on a single mon? How?
