Auto resize to slices

Post by LukasGasp »

I have a rig with five LED-Screens (on Stage) and a projector. I have set up slices and screen-Devices like usual on an composition. The LED-Screens should show Stage Backgrounds. For example I want to show one Image on masked on all LED-Screens (fitting). The Beamer is used to show Clips while the curtain is closed.

Now my Problem:
I want to use features like auto resize relating to the LED-Screen Output (the five Slices) but it will do it relating to the whole composition. As I want to use mask, i can't use fit or fill in the Slice Transform Menue.

How can I scale images, clips and other sources to the LED-Screens fast?

Thanks in advance.

By default, layer sizes follow the composition size, the auto size eon layer will use the layer size and position.
You can set the layer sizes manually, and position them how you'd like, and then the auto size will fit the clips to that size.
I'd use a separate layer for this.

I think I am experiencing a Bug with this solution... :o Or just my missing knowledge...

I did everything like described above. It seems to work perfectly fine at a first glance. As soon, as I use slice transform weird things start to happen: The movement is applied relative to the Layer (which is smaller than the composition). This results the Videos not filling the slice. You can see, how everything should be in it's slice but actually moves relative to the smaller layer.

Or am I missing something?

Thank you again.

Is the slice transform before or after the layer's Transform?
