Keyframe smoothing in the editor is broken, or am I broken?
Specs: Davinci Free v 20.2.3 build 6, Win11.
DVR Knowledge: 6.57/10
Frustration level: Extreme
---
I *used* to be able to adjust smoothing per clip (v19), and in the pop-out editor around the time I first upgraded to v20 (many months ago). Now, no matter what I click on, where I put my playhead, what level of zoom I adjust to, etc, I CANNOT see any activity on any of my keyframes.
For context, I'm moving one clip (Fusion) in to occupy half the scene, whilst the main clip pushes over to the remaining half of the screen, we hold that 50-50 arrangement for a while, then the Fusion clip exits from the left side completely and the main clip resumes holding 100% of the frame.
Think of it like a push transition, only it pushes the clip halfway, holds, then un-pushes.
Here you can see my editor. Completely flat. So I have incredibly janky animations because I can't smooth/ease/etc.
Can someone help me with this?
I had this on a previous project a few weeks back and just gave up and did a different effect, but I really need to get this working as it was before I recently upgraded from v20.whatever to the latest v20 release.
Please and thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Some troubleshooting I've already done:
* As above
* No, I didn't mess with any settings (knowingly)
* No, I can't edit these in Fusion (Splines are empty)
* No, I can't use a different effect
* I've clicked every available icon and nothing happens
* Zoom does nothing
