"Connect To" not working

PostFri Oct 15, 2021 11:36 am

For some reason I can't seem to link a paint node to a shape. When I right click on "Right click here for shape animation" and select "Connect To" then nothing comes up. I have shape paths in my composition.

I'm using the macOS version of Resolve and this seems to work in Fusion 9. Is there something I'm missing?

You can only Connect To parameters that are keyframed, published or modified.

I can see from your node screenshots that 'path1' has no keyframes. On path1 you probably right-clicked on "Right-click here for shape animation" and chose "Remove Polygon1Polyline"? In which case, right-click on path1's "Right-click here.." and choose Publish.

Then you'll be able to Connect To it from Paint1.
