Hello everyone,

I am a fusion user since 2008. My first post here. I want to share my experiences with you. :)

I wanted to share my wish list of small improvements. This is simple but effective list. I think changes from fusion 9 gone a bit wrong way.

1- I can't move spline masks with left-right or shift+left/right arrows. I can move it with up/down but not left/right. Shift+ctrl for small move, shift+alt for big move is working. But its confusing. It was simple and good just use arrows and...

Fusion Studio v16 added a Console button to the top left of the UI that makes it a 1-click thing to open the Console view:

It would be really handy if the Resolve preferences added a checkbox where the Console button could be (optionally) enabled for the Resolve UI too.

Having the Console tab button in Resolve would make it super-fast to install Reactor via drag/drop to the Console window while an editor is using any of the Resolve pages. This is more accessible then constantly...

On a 4k monitor, Fusion is almost unusable. The UI ends up absolutely microscopic, and even after increasing to the max, pick distances on tools and UI controls are way too small. Resizing an underlay takes forever because the edges are a single pixel to grab, and connecting nodes is slow and error-prone due to incredibly micro distances to pick and drag. It would be fantastic if the UI could be scaled, even just increasing font size would help a ton.

Right now the SubV is fixed and works fine for A buffer or B buffer. But it's not great when you have an A|B split.

So what would be nice is you could have a second SubV on the opposite side that showed the B buffer content. If you roll the split bar so the sides swap, the SubV's would swap their input too.

I had a tricky shot where some footage had slightly offset timecode, but other footage didn't. Having the ability to A|B compare AND look at the timecode metadata would have been nice....

Occasionally I try to give a node a name that I've already used in my comp. If I'm going fast enough, I don't notice that Fusion refuses the name and preserves the old one. I would like to see an option to have Fusion append a numeral to the new name, like it does with a copy-paste operation.

I'd love to see an update the expressions field that encapsulates the parts of the expression that link to other tools and allows the user to right click and goto that tool or perform other actions relating to the referenced tool (not just parameter).

Just as an example for expression fields, here's a screenshot from Apple Numbers. Each of the colored ovals is a reference to another cell in the spreadsheet. Perhaps clicking the little arrow dropdown could reveal the selected field (as checked)...

I'd love to be able to drag out from any input/output connection while holding down a modifier key and get a filtered version of the 'Add Tool' popup menu.
Example: drag from the output of any 3d tool and get a list of only the tools that it can logically connect with.

Alternatively, right-click and drag from the output to an empty area on the flow for that filtered menu (similar to right-click and dragging from an output to an existing node to get a popup list of available inputs)

Normally, when the input to a 2D viewer changes size, the resulting OpenGL quad stays centered where it was previously. I'm not sure what the utility of this is, but I would prefer that the relative coordinate point of the quad in the center of the viewer was maintained, respecting pixel size.

Notice that according to the Merge2D, these images are the same size. If you A|B compare them, they also are aligned. But if you assign them to the same viewer buffer sequentially, the quad jumps...

Would be nice when using the Histogram SubV if the vertical lines indicating 0 and 1 would change, perhaps to red, to indicate that a sample lies outside the range. Normal distribution means the height of the histogram columns are usually small for normally exposed images, so it's hard to tell unless you scale up and zoom in.

Also, any visual indicator of a NAN sample would be nice.
