1. the ability to disable partial Fusion and/or Color grading. Per group, node or per effect (for example, being able to turn off noise reduction, fusion text effects and things you can miss during editing the timeline). At the moment you completely disable Fusion or Color via the color icon, but sometimes it is interesting to be able to disable certain effects in order to control other effects while playing at the correct speed without delays. I know you can disable a node for a moment, per clip, but it should also be possible to disable a certain effect over the entire timeline. For example, I don't need noise reduction being active while further tweaking the timeline, or I don't care when the green screen background is visible while I do want to see added text FX happening in real time.
2. The sensitivity of placing clips on tracks should also be adjustable with certain conditions (magnet, snapping, insert function). When placing a clip, Resolve tries to estimate what your plan is, but this very often leads to incorrect placements on the wrong track and therefore the unwanted removal of certain parts from a clip, when, for example, accidentally releasing the mouse. It could be useful to be able to choose how fast, accurate or sensitive Resolve should deal with this. For example, by being able to set or prioritize 1 or more (but not all) tracks as more sensitive to magnet, snapping and insert functions or by excluding certain tracks by turning them off for snapping, insert and other related functions.
3. Related to point 2, Resolve should also be able to: for example, I usually use 2 tracks as edit tracks (tracks I experiment on, and past clips I'm already sure about placements on the timeline). I then give the other tracks specific 'targets'. Like a text track, to which only text, or even just copy/paste the same text FX, is added. Resolve should be aware of how my tracks are being used by addressing certain tracks as 'a text effect track', 'a compound clip track', etc... When using the copy/paste function, Resolve should recognize addressed tracks and be able to even copy/paste the clip on a track above or under the clip where the copy/paste originated from. Copy/pasting is now only possible on the same track, while very often I need a copy/past on the same location, but wanting to place them on a track above the other.
4. Nodes that are saved (with certain settings), that you unlock, and further tweak, affect all clips to which this copy was added. It should be possible to unlock this copied node per clip and only be able to adjust it per clip and not for all linked clips.
