Set Fade

Category: Control

Set fade layer template changes the fade of a video output, a section or a layer.

Variables

Default

• Mode: select the fade of what you'd like to adjust. Options are:

  • Video output Fade: adjusts the fade of the selected Video output.

  • Section Fade: adjusts the fade of the selected section.

  • Layer Fade: adjusts the fade of the selected layer.

• Fade: set the new value of the fade. 1 = 100% (fully on), 0 = 0% (fully dimmed).

• Speed: adjust the speed of the adjustment. 1 means real-time. If you set it to really small values, like 0.2, the fade value will adjust slowly towards the target value.

• Auto rename: select if you want the layer's name to display the state of the variables.

Workflow

1. Inserting the layer

Through the right click menu

Right click in the Timeline, select Control category and choose Set Fade layer.

3. Set up the layer

Set up the layer's variables the way you want.

Good to know: setting Speed to lower than 1 can be useful if the Fade value is jumping significantly and you'd want to smooth the jumps.
