Thanks so much! Stay tuned! Next in this little series (should be after the next vid) pulls in modifiers to build out a super flexible progress bar thing like I built here. Expressions+modifiers gets sooooo powerful
I was for sure thinking you used at least three to make that! - Rectangle for the progress bar - Background to color said progress bar - Text+ for the text Although, in heinsight, your last video was quite big foreshadowing for how you did this. Well done and thanks for teaching us Mr. Stirling!
I have wanted to understand expressions (I have zero coding education/experience) and this has helped me a little bit. I would love to have more basic examples and explanations. Thank you!
I really enjoy learning this type of stuff. Can you show how you make this work with the bar animation please. I think I have an idea how to do it but want to see if it’s right.
I do have to say that I *did* know DaVinci Resolve could do this, but I may not be the target audience. But you did a very good job of explaining how it works for those who don't. Well done. Much appreciated.
Yes please, bring on expressions. The more the better. Would love to understand how to use expressions along with things like anim curves in order to build custom effects.
I was going to replicate a lower thirds graphics. What I needed to do was make a background that automatically filled the width of the longest of two text elements, but the two text elements didn’t animate on at the same time. Both would also animate in with different movements than each other and differently than the background. It took a lot of masking and some expressions to make the mask the same width as the text plus some extra margin. It took a while before I managed to find a way to make an expression from the width of text, and I’m not sure it was the best way to do it. I would love if you have some tips related to expressions based on text width.
I'd start here getting comfortable with the shading elements but you'll likely also have to do some work with instanced nodes so you can have some copies of the text without animation to determine the position and scale of the background elements. ua-cam.com/video/EKZbP8QnmBs/v-deo.html
Is this related to how you would go about making your text box wrap your text or allow you to type long phrase in a specified text box (like word docs have)?
Oh man, I've been using a CustomTool to add custom controls, but I've been a bit frustrated by the lack of options. The Edit Controls might be exactly what I've been looking for. Definitely going to have to play around with that! Now if Resolve would just include a "Publish to Edit" to allow us to send our custom nodes (or individual parameters) to the edit page without all the convoluted macro exporting/importing nonsense, that would be a dream come true! 😍
I think it would help your channel if you would mention the topic right away. You know, the first five seconds. Then, you do you, with your friendly style and great info. Just an opinion. Cheers
supel cool.... are there any expressions for color controls in case i wanna build a tool that let's me map only the controls that i want to one node ? like with a DCTL or something ?
you can totally do it but right not that means linking the value for each individual color channel (RGBA) to the same value on the color slider you want to control both
there's a number of amazing resources for this out there! here are some of my favorites! billjustice.com/fusion_expressions_cheat_sheet wipptemplates.com/expressions/ another-davinci-resolve-blog.blogspot.com/2021/03/davinci-resolve-expressions.html noahhaehnel.com/blog/fusion-simple-expressions-cookbook/ feel free to pick up a rad preset with those few bucks instead :p
You use iif(valuecontrol == 0, ..... for an index based condition could you make it more "readable" with something like iff(valuecontrol.value == text, .... ? I guess what I'm really asking is...is there an official expression language reference?
Every time you show something only needing 1 node, my brain melts
Can confirm. My brain just melted only at 3 min in so far
This is really cool stuff!
More!
I want lots more of this cool stuff.
Please😅
Okay, just came back to finish the video. This was the quickest masterclass in expressions. Love this stuff! Thanks Patrick

This is crazy. And yeah, more of it all!!

Yes, more videos on expressions in Fusion please!
That node you showed is probably the most powerful, I remember someone making a whole timeslice effect with just that one
Edit Controls and modifiers can add so much to every single node it rocks
WOW!!!! Patrick the stuff you share is unreal!!! Thanks so much!!!

These text+ nodes have so many possibilities, it's insane.... Amazing video as always!

If I only made videos about what YOU didn't know I wouldn't have nearly as many videos :p
@@PatrickStirling Aww shucks, you're too kind.
love how much you do for the community! planning to cover the content of your latest video sometime and look forward to mentioning it directly
@@PatrickStirling The Grids and Guides one? I was just bug fixing that macro today. Almost there.
The title scroll option hidden away in Text+!
Patrick, you are grossly underrated
yeah more modifiers, more expressions, more more!!!
Welp..... blew my mind before i even finished my coffee. Incredible stuff my dude!
Some more mind-blowing stuff coming 🤘🤘🤘
@@PatrickStirling Mind.Mindstatus+more videos (value=Blown)

really an interesting explanation that gives us the possibility to understand the architecture of the fusion page!

Check out the most recent video before this one for the text system you'd use for that!
Nice choice of knitwear today Patrick!

Every time I think I'm really good and smart at DaVinci I see a video like this and realize I haven't even scratched the surface
Hi Patrick, do you have a speedramp tutorial to create that holywood seemless transition?
thanks, as always a perfect explanation, but how does the expression look like for drop down menus with more than 2 options?
I think it would help your channel if you would mention the topic right away. You know, the first five seconds. Then, you do you, with your friendly style and great info. Just an opinion. Cheers
You do good work, thanks
Great insight Patrick!
yeah i thought 20 nodes and 1s later immediately thought 1 lol text+ is OP
I like your sweater.
Waiting for the next video 🤩
Next video is a quick update to a present but that one after that picks up right after this one and builds on it in really cool ways
supel cool....
are there any expressions for color controls in case i wanna build a tool that let's me map only the controls that i want to one node ?
like with a DCTL or something ?
you can totally do it but right not that means linking the value for each individual color channel (RGBA) to the same value on the color slider you want to control both
@ did you find any documentation regarding dctl programming ? I can’t find anything…
bro please how can i save compound clips so that, i can be able to use them in other projects in resolve?
I would pay good money for an expressions cheat-sheet if you were to ever make one available for purchase on your website

What type of basic coding language would you need to learn in order to know how to use the xyz.value ..abc.value stuff?
it's Lua which I believe is Python
@@PatrickStirling Thank you
What Laptop are you using? How much RAM do you have
You use
iif(valuecontrol == 0, ..... for an index based condition
could you make it more "readable" with something like
iff(valuecontrol.value == text, .... ?
I guess what I'm really asking is...is there an official expression language reference?
Soon, instead of typing "Hiiiiii" you will be typing "hello world" the rate you're going ^^
did you dress as your granpa for halloween 🤣
excuse me sir?
ONE NODE?!?!?!
IIF = Inline IF, i.e. on one line and not split up on multiple lines,
The more you know 🎇

First ! 😄
Grow up
