Add bezier options to clip fade handles

It would be wonderful to have direct access to Bézier curves on video clip fade handles. Audio fade handles have this somewhat, but it would be GREAT to have it on video clips as well instead of only having linear fades on the video clip handles.

Big +1!

I would love to have selectable fade/crossfade curves from a dropdown list. For crossfades, both curves could be set independently to produce asymmetrical crossfades. Then in the Inspector have several options for fine tuning the fades/crossfades with numerical values. This way custom fades/crossfades could be easily reproduced by typing or copying/pasting the settings onto other clips to produce the exact same result.

Here is the Crossfade Editor from my DAW Reaper, having fade/crossfade settings like this in the Inspector would be amazing.

The DAWs I've used and my previous NLE Vegas Pro, have much better control over fades/crossfades. I really hope BMD will make basic editing a priority one of these upgrade cycles because it is missing a lot of standard editing features like this. At the moment, it's more convenient for me to render all audio out of Resolve then edit and mix in Reaper. I'd prefer to stay entirely in Resolve for video projects though, so hopefully these issues will be addressed.

I’m specifically talking about the small white-chevron quick-bran handles on video clips in the Edit page, but yes, it would be great to have more in-depth control as well in pop-out menus like Reaper and Pro Tools.

I’d also like to be able to move a cross fade freely rather than just pick left/center/right for position.

You mean like how the audio fades have the point in the middle that you can manually move around to adjust the shape? If so, I personally don't like editing like that as it's hard to replicate the same fade shapes across multiple edits by hand. But as long as the manual curves correlate to numerical values in the Inspector that can be copied and pasted then I'm all for having multiple options.

Yes, I really do not understand the point of that. For crossfades the end points are what matter, not the original edit point. Yet, Resolve focuses more on the original edit point. Resolve doesn't even show a preview of the clip being adjusted in the viewer when adjusting an edge of a transition. Resolve feels completely backwards when it comes to editing transitions.

In an old feature request, I requested having the transitions look exactly the same after they are added (whether you add them left, right, or center on a cut). This would make adjusting the transitions so much nicer and more flexible as you could combine all of the editing features from left/right and center and have them all accessible while editing without having to change the location of the transition. For example, if you want to use symmetrical editing you have to change the transition to be centered, not left/right.
See #5 "Different editing behavior for left, right and center aligned transitions" in this thread:

You can hold the Ctrl key and adjust the edges of cross-fade independently

Very helpful tip!! However, I usually want to keep the length of the fade the same or similar—and I don’t understand why Resolve locks the fade location at one of three places.

+1 the more bezier the better
