Loading Nodes Into Viewers

When you first open the Fusion page in DaVinci Resolve, the output of the current empty composition (the MediaOut1 node) is usually showing in viewer 2. If you’re in Dual-viewer mode, viewer 1 remains empty until you assign a node to one of them.

When using Fusion Studio, nothing is loaded into either of the viewers until you assign a node to one of them.


To load specific nodes into specific viewers:

— Hover the pointer over a node, and click one of two buttons that appear at the bottom left of the node.

— Click once to select a node, and press 1 (for the left viewer) or 2 (for the right viewer).

— Right-click a node and choose View On > None/Left View/Right View in the contextual menu.

— Right-click the control header of a node in the Inspector, and choose View On > None/Left View/ Right View from the contextual menu.

— Drag a node and drop it over the viewer you’d like to load it into (this is great for tablet users).


When a node is being viewed, a View Indicator button appears at the bottom left. This is the same control that appears when you hover the pointer over a node. Not only does this control let you know which nodes are loaded into which viewer, but they also expose little round buttons for switching between viewers.

Viewer assignment buttons at the bottom of nodes indicate when they’re being viewed.
