Default option for Ease In/Out Keyrames

Dear Blackmagic Team,

As a professional editor working full-time in high-pressure environments, I frequently rely on speed ramps in DaVinci Resolve. With the recent improvements to the speed curve interface in Resolve 20, the workflow has become more visual — which is appreciated — but one essential function is still missing:

Currently, every time I add a Speed Point, I have to manually open the keyframe curve, click on the point, and apply Ease In/Out using the small handle buttons. This may seem like a minor task, but when working on projects that require frequent time remapping, this manual process becomes extremely inefficient and tedious.

Over the course of a typical editing day, this repetitive operation easily consumes upwards of an hour of unnecessary mouse clicks and precision fiddling. This disrupts creative flow and adds friction to an otherwise elegant editing environment.

I would like to request a default behavior or user preference that allows newly added speed points to automatically be set to Ease In/Out, or at least remember the last used interpolation setting.

This would align with the way many editors approach speed ramping by default and significantly improve the efficiency and professional usability of the speed toolset.

Thank you again for your dedication to improving DaVinci Resolve. I appreciate the continued development and hope to see this implemented in a future update.

Best regards,
Lennart

+1 Changing the default easing would be fantastic. And if Blackmagic ever adds more curve shapes to the easing (something that has been requested many times, myself included), then it would be great to have a way to quickly assign the defaults (like right-click -> "Set Default Ease In" / "Set Default Ease Out") so you can change it on the fly while you are editing instead of digging into the settings menu to change it.

This part perfectly sums up my overall experience in Resolve. While Resolve has many powerful tools under the hood, it still remains the worst feeling and most frustrating editing application I've ever used.
