Fusion 8.2.1 & 9 have a new Lua and Python based GUI building system called the fu.UIManager library. This library is used whenever you need to create your own custom graphical user interface in a Fusion based Lua or Python script.

The fu.UIManager allows you to add object oriented windows, buttons, text fields, sliders, tree list views, and controls that are accessible inside your script code. The new fu.UIManager library is QT window manger based and it is used to replace Fusion 7's older...

Check out Config:/ PathMap folder-based .fu files for hotkey bindings of Lua code snippets, and actions.

Search on WSL for posts about it, or look in Reactor at the stx_tools, nuke2fusion, cryptomatte, and KartaVR .fu hotkey files.

This forum will be about all the nice things you can do with Fusion's scripting and Fuse API, whether it's questions, expressions, snippets or finished scripts.

To get you started with scripting, it's highly recommended to take a look at vfxpedia:

Description of eyeonscript's Lua libraries
Specific information related to comp scripts , tool scripts or InTool scripts & expressions

Hi. This thread will be the starting point for a new WSL tutorial series of posts that will hopefully get you started creating, editing, and releasing your own custom Fusion Macros. :cheer:

A macro is a plain text document that has the .setting file extension. It is built with the same general syntax as a Fusion .comp document but is cut down to just the elements of a few nodes and avoids the typical header data used in a full Fusion composite for things like the Fusion timeline and viewer...

That sounds really interesting!

I've since I found Fusion been wanting to learn about scripting. For me it's really hard to put in the time to not only learn the things that I want to learn but also hunt for the resources to actually learn from (tutorials, manuals, etc) so maybe you guys can help me with this.

I've seem some super heroes in the Discord channel and here in the Forums, people like Movalex, Andrew Hazelden, Bryan Ray, SirEdric and Mrs Pieter himself. If you cut this guys in the arm they bleed out Fusion juice...

I have created a tool script that you can attach to a Grid Warp that allows you to track that Grid Warps points and then create a new Grid Warp that will follow the underlying texture (if tracking is sufficient). So this is kind of a Patch Tracker for deforming 2D surfaces.

I have added the some items to a dropbox here:

In it is the tool script 'ISDK_GridWarpTrack.lua' to be inserted into the Scripts/Tools directory, as well as a dummy project and some source and sample footage. Be warned...

Hello MelBFilm,
and thanks for such multi-purpose and resourceful tools esp. ISDKGridWarpTrack!
It worked great with Andrews ISDKImportTracker importing grid trackers to Fusion's CameraTracker to solve them to 3D Points. Fusion's in debt to all you CG driven, who literally keep Fusion perpetually pertinent in postproduction,. obviously look forward to WarpTracker and others in development.
In fact this project tests WarpTrackers' potential, generating Deformable mocap point clouds, so...

Series Overview

Interest on WSL in the PIXAR OpenUSD technology is certainly on the rise so I thought I should start a new WSL thread that explores, from a technical director's perspective, the process of setting up an OpenUSD based pipeline from the ground up.

By the end of the first article in this multi-part series, we will have compiled and installed our very own copy of the OpenUSD libraries and CLI (command-line) tools.

In subsequent articles, we will take a look at:

Python, Lua,...

Translating Fusion 3D System Nodes into the USD ASCII Format

As a result of encouragement and beta testing help from one of WSL's newest members, dancemanj , I've been pushing forward my development efforts on the KartaVR delivered Export Point Cloud script at an accelerated pace this last week. The team collaboration effort of quick Lua scripting by me, and responsive beta testing feedback by Jeff has resulted in a near parallel build-out of PIXAR USD ASCII (.usda) + Maya ASCII (.ma) Fusion...

DaVinci Resolve 16.1.1.005 Fusion Tab: Fusion - Console menu entry missing

First post

Sorry for a very likely stupid question... I am quiet new to Resolve and have not done much in Fusion at all.

I stumbled over the Gridwarp Tracker and wanted to test it.

After searching around for a while now, I figured out there should be a menu Fusion -> Console .
But I am missing it on my installation.

The tutorial Resolve Scripting Essentials covers DR 15, but I would be surprised if this feature had been removed from DR 16.

Has anybody a tip? Thanks in advance.

Well.... if you were on WSL more, I would have suggested getting a Fusion Studio license that unlocks Fusion Studio v9 and v16.x, plus unlimited Fusion render nodes, and Resolve Studio too.

Personally, I find it a bit nicer making Resolve Fusion page compatible macros using Fusion Studio v9. But that's just me.

FYI a Resolve Studio activation card license can't run Fusion Studio due to how BMD runs the Resolve license system. And a Resolve Studio dongle can run Fusion Studio v16 but not any...

4-point gradient, driven by an input image

Last post by SecondMan « 1 week 1 day ago

by Fefson » 2 weeks 6 days ago

First post

I'd like to find a way to have a bg-4pointgradient with an input. So that the gradientcolours are driven by 4 probe-rectangles - without having to go trough the hassle of entering Image-to_probe over and over again. I've tried combining a customtool with a bg, but I can't seem to link to use the ct-colorvalues as expressioninputs in a bg-node. I believe it shoudld be something like the sparse-color-fuse, unfortunately that doesn't work anymore.

This is exactly what Macros were created for... :)

You've already figured out how to set it up, so why not do the heavy lifting once and apply it to whatever?

Quick proof of concept (which you can expand on as much as you like):

Sprite Sheet Extractor Fuse

First post

One of my coworkers asked for a Fusion tool that could handle sprite sheets, such as are commonly used for video game fx animation. This is rough, but it works. Suggestions for refinement are welcome. I'd like to have a trim control in case the last row doesn't have an image in every column, but I haven't quite sorted out how to do that.

This is great Bryan! I actually had made a macro with similar functionality, but this is much more elegant! I used my macro for slicing and dicing pictures and then feeding it into a particle system to animate. Like in the example below.
