Manual Labeling
Sometimes the easiest thing to do is to just give a particular still a custom name that’s
representative of what that still represents, such as “SeemedLikeAGoodIdea.” When naming
stills manually, it’s best to avoid using the forward slash character in case you find yourself
exporting these stills with file names. In fact, it’s a good idea to avoid using the forward slash
character for just about any text that you add in DaVinci Resolve.
To manually label a still:
1 Right-click a still in the Gallery and choose Change Label or double-click directly under
the Still ID.
2 Type a name into the Change Still Label dialog, and click OK.
The new label appears underneath the still number.
You can also label stills for easier identification
Searching For Stills
Once labeled, you can search for stills you need in the Gallery.
To search for a still by label:
Click the Magnifying Glass button to open the Search field, click to place the cursor
within, and then type the name or description you are searching for.
As soon as you start typing, DaVinci Resolve automatically begins to filter the results of the
currently selected album in the Gallery to match what’s been typed.
Match Reference Wipe Frame
You can right-click any Gallery still and choose Match Reference Wipe Frame to automatically
move the playhead to the exact frame that corresponds to that still, and select that clip in the
Color page Timeline.
