Stretch Start/Stretch End
The Stretch Start and Stretch End controls lets you specify a middle zone where keyframes will
be stretched or squished. Handles outside the range will not get scaled. Any keyframes outside
the Stretch Start and End range always remain the same number of frames from the
Start and End.
Any keyframe adjustments to the original control will be correspondingly scaled back to the
source curve and will match the original timing as expected.
Stretch Edges Instead
Enabling the Stretch Edges Instead checkbox overrides the Stretch Start and Stretch End
controls and stretches the edges of the animation.
Run Command [RUN]
The Run Command node
Run Command Node Introduction
The Run Command node is used to execute an external command or batch file at specific
points during a render. You can choose to run a command at the start or the end of a render.
Or you can have the command execute once for each frame.
The Run Command can be used to net render other command line applications using the
Fusion Render Manager, as well as a host of other useful functions.
Inputs
The single input on the Run Command node is used to pass through a 2D image.
–
Input: The optional orange image input is not required for this node to operate.
However, if it is connected to a node‘s output, the Run Command will only launch
after the connected node has finished rendering. This is often useful when
connected to a Saver, to ensure that the output frame has been fully saved to disk
first. If the application launched returns a non-zero result, the node will also fail.
Basic Node Setup
The Run Command node can be connected after a Saver and run once the final frame is
completed.
