Feathered Edge?

PostSat May 22, 2021 4:50 am

What is the deal with the weird dark border that appears when using softness on cropping on a solid color slug?

Is it possible to just get a normal feathered edge?

A lot of those views are just bots, not users.

What specific version of Resolve are you using? What OS?

No issue on my system. No dark border or other odd behaviour when using crop with softness on a solid color generator.

I also get dark borders when using a blur on an image with an alpha channel. Put a light colored image with alpha over a white clip and add a gaussian blur to it. Make sure to tick the "use alpha" box.
