Hand Tool In Color Window?

PostFri Dec 13, 2019 7:11 am

Really stupid question but I can't find the/a hand tool in Color. Want to do some precision masking of an object at the edge of frame. TIA,

Or use whatever middle click equivalent you have available. I have that mapped on my Wacom pen.

I know this is years old but I can't map anything to the middle click on my mouse. Trying to map the function elsewhere but I can't find it in keyboard shortcuts, what is this function referred to as in the keyboard shortcuts?

Have a look at page 138 of the manual. This section covers keyboard customization and adding your own shortcuts.

Cheers for that! I had a look over the section and it doesn't say anything about re-mapping this function anywhere beyond the middle mouse click.

Will do some digging to see if I can get it working another way.

Resolve has no method to map mouse buttons.

That said, the middle mouse drag works by default. You shouldn't need to set it up.

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
