Is there any way i can see which one is my current keyframe ? in the viewer i got a tracking data (path), but when i scrub the time, i'm lost... i don't know which one is the current keyframe. Normally i can see the big 'cross' icon which represent the position of current track data, but in case where the cross has been shifted out then i have no clue about the current keyframe.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a segment with 25 frame handles with CFX applied. It also has a time warp added in the timeline. When I try and extend the handles at the head of the shot it slips all the key frames within the CFX. This happens regardless of whether I set the KFM box to 'Shift' or 'Pin'.

I have a 10 sec clip that I want to track. It's a girl driving on her bike a long a street. The camera is always parallel to her, so that the scene behind her keeps on changing. How can I track such a shot? I know, that if I want to track something going off screen, I have to jump to the last frame and adjust the tracker, but this clip is just too long, to just place the tracker at the very last frame (almost randomly).

the most annoying thing in smoke is doing backward offset-tracking. How to do it the right way ? it seems to be too complicated than it should be. In Nuke i ussually can track from any frame and can offset the reference to any pattern at any frame freely. I can't find something like that in Smoke. One solution is reverse the clip first, but that's not always the solution.

This is not a YUV headroom issue just to be clear and Im not looking at a broadcast output. Using my Eizo monitor with smoke I just did a color correction and exported a prores 422 hq with and with out yuv headroom. What Im noticing is that the color of the image in the smokes viewer is more saturated than the output which is being viewd in qt 7 and whatever the other qt is. Im not talking fine details here, Im talking about whoa whats going on with this isnt remotley close to being in the same ballpark. In short when I tab over to the qt file and shrink it and place it side by side by what is in the smokes viewer they do not match on the same monitor.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI go to mk, connect my clip to a gmask , double click gmask to focus to that module. I switch to 2 viewport. The left is the schematic, the right is the F1 (front). First when i click the F1 viewport, i got no 'add' button for adding gmask. So i have to first go to view pulldown, just do some unecessary click there to refresh. Now after refreshing, i can see my 'add' button is showed up. But the second problem is : i can't immediately press that 'add' button, there's a lag about 5- 7 seconds before i can click that button.
Also i can switch from mk schematic to f1 or f4 quite fast, but sometime go from any of front/back/matte view back to the mk schematic, it will take 4-7 second even for simple/basic mk network/tree.
The problem won't appear when using single viewport.
Is it possible to lock the CFX output to the broadcast monitor so that I can see the changes I make on the image in the broadcast monitor while working in the 1-up view? This way the CFX schematic can fill my 23 inch computer screen. So far i have only been able to do that with the 2-up, etc views. As soon as I switch to the 1-up view or swipe to the left while in 2-up view (which switches it back to the 1-up) the broadcast monitor shows whatever I am working on be it schematic or other.
When I am in the 2-up view and I lock the right part of the 2 up view to the broadcast monitor I usually maximize the left view to fill the screen. It however does not fully fill the screen and keeps the right view scaled to a very small size on the right.
The overlay of free guide and working area in the viewer don't work. I can't see any of these overlay indicator in the viewer. Is this a bug or do i miss something ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSomehow on it's incarnation to Smoke 2013 a core functionality of editing is lost.
I cannot drag'n drop any footage from the viewer into the TL by F-drag or Pen-tip anymore. This has been working in previous versions of Smoke and makes an NLE an intuitive experience, especially if you are coming from a FCP/PremierPro background. I'm sure this is a typical alpha build loss.
in action schematic i can select any surface and press 'solo' , i can see the output on viewer. This is very cool feature. But if i switch the surface to other surface/image then the viewer won't update properly. I have to refresh by click to turn off and on again the 'solo' button. This will be great if the auto update is fixed.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi'm trying to link my edl with the correct clips. So when i got a green check icon , indicating that smoke have found the matched clip. But before i link it i just want to make sure that it's the correct clip. So in the bin, the clip is highligted and i double click it to open it up in the viewer. The problem the viewer split control is disabled so i can't do split screen to match that clip with the guide/offline (in the edl sequence i've inserted the guide movie). all i can see i have to link it first then go back to timeline and now i can view in split screen.

I use this often to compare the same point in time for an offline to online clip. I can open the timecode input window, and manually enter the timecode from one clip to another, but I can't seem to find the copy and paste commands that will use that timecode as the input.

Inside my current action, I have this Axis+Image with some keyframes on opacity and transformation, also some keyframes on X blur/Y blur in my Media list. How do I recycle this setup for other Action?
I tried the save selected object, but when I load it from other action, using Add Nodes + Media method, only the Axis and Image show up (with keyframes). The Media of it shows empty.
Quite often I'll paint up a frame, having forgotten to switch 'current frame' to 'sequence'. Is there any way to copy and apply a current frame's paintups to the sequence after the fact?

How do I display just the current shot in Color Corrector Page time line, not whole sequence ?
Screen grab shows I am parked on a shot in Colour Warper but timeline shows whole 6 minute sequence rather than the shot I am working on.
While changing the media drive in Smoke setup via commenting out the current drive isn't a complicated process, I personally would find a more streamlined option useful. Something on the startup screen would be great: select project, user, media drive. When using FW800 drives, I typically try to have a discreet project drive that has everything on there for the current project. With the larger Thunderbolt raids, I am going back a little to the old system of having active storage and archive storage. However, when thunderbolt prices come down, I'll most likely have a separate drive for each project again.

In Combustion, you would draw a selection and then apply an operator above the selection to achieve this. I don't see a similar selection tool function in Smoke, but I imagine you could achieve the same effect by duplicating a layer and using a Gmask via the Wipe timeline FX.does Smoke not have a selection tool similar to Combustion?
