keystone plugin - a couple of thoughts

when you use the keystone plugin, it only lets you compress the video shape, not stretch it - stretching would be handy in some situations.
also, when used on a layer - it ignores the layer size and works according to the video size, so if you have the keystone plugin on the layer and have 2 different size vids on that layer - the resulting keystoning changes size according to which vid is selected. this makes it fiddly if i wanted to keystone everything on a layer.
thanks.

We received some requests for negative values on the x and y axis of the Keystone plugs before. I never quite understood the point of that, but would this be something similar to what you're asking?

Yes, this is, unfortunately, a direct result of how the layer and clip translations are rendered in the pipeline (namely simultaneously). This will certainly be addressed in the next version. For now I'll make a feature request to render the keystoning plugs at composition size as opposed to source content size.

Okay, then I'll add this feature as a request as well.

was just gonna post up regarding the keystoning on a layer which is something i use a lot, and yeah i was getting the same problem regarding video sizes, any idea when the fix will be implemented?

BTW, does this also occur when you set the layer size to be fixed at 640x480 (or whatever your composition size is)?

im running in 1024 x 768 as its a nice handy resolution for the projector. im also splitting this off to a rgb converter to send to the other satelite screens in the venue but that can be whatever res. its more the main projector i want to keep happy

So when you set the layers to be fixed at 1024x768, does they keystone also misbehave?
