Customizing the Color Page

The various sections of the Color page can be resized, hidden, and rearranged as needed to accommodate different working styles. This section covers all of the methods that are available for Color page customization.

You can easily resize the Viewer, Gallery, and Nodes Editor relative to one another to make the

Viewer larger, expand the width of the Node Editor to have more workspace, or to create more or less room for stills in the Gallery.


To resize the Viewer, Gallery, and Node Editor:

— Move the pointer over the vertical divider between any two areas. When the resize icon appears, drag the divider to the left or right to make one area larger while making the other smaller.

You can also fully expand the Gallery, the Memories, the Node Editor, and the Keyframe Editor to replace completely whichever interface area is adjacent.


To expand the Keyframe Editor, Viewer, and Gallery:

— Click the Expand control at the upper right of whichever interface area you want to expand. Once expanded, clicking the Expand control again will collapse that interface area back to its original size, revealing whatever was hidden.

In Display mode, you can completely hide the Viewer, pushing the Gallery all the way to the right side of the DaVinci Resolve window, and expanding the Node Editor to take the rest of the space.


To toggle Display mode, do one of the following:

image

— Right-click in the empty area of the Node Editor, and choose Toggle Display Mode from the contextual menu. Do this again to toggle Display Mode off and return the interface to the way it was.

To show and hide the Mini-Timeline:

— Click the Timeline button at the right of the palette button bar.

To show and hide the Color page Viewer upper toolbar:

— Click the Viewer option menu and choose Show Viewer Options to uncheck it.

To return all pages to their default layout:
