[Bug] Fusion 17.4.3 — Text+ Timeline HiQ setting

PostMon Jan 17, 2022 2:40 pm

Summary:
If I disable HiQ in a fusion composition's timeline, then go to render the composition at Full quality (or another preset with HiQ enabled), the output text is still pixelated. It looks like anti-aliasing hasn't been turned back on for the render. In the manual, it says these settings cannot be disabled if you select Full Quality in the render options, so by default it should render with HiQ on, regardless of timeline settings?

EDIT: Seems to only be a bug for the Text+ node? Or perhaps it's less noticeable with other nodes.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Create a new Fusion Comp
2) Disable HiQ in the timeline option
3) Add a Text+ node to the comp, add some text (it should look jagged at the edges if HiQ is off)
4) Add a saver node and render the composition (I tested with EXR files and ProRes)
5) Check the rendered file. Jagged edges remain for me.

If I turn on HiQ in the timeline and adjust the text, the jagged edges go away and the project renders in full quality. This is on my M1 machine — haven't tested on the Intel.

Is anyone else able to reproduce?

Further update: This issue is also present if AutoProxy is enabled in the project (Saver Node set to render a Full Quality export).

Tested on my Intel machine just now and can reproduce there too.
