Yes, thank you Dwaine.
And here are my thoughts from that conversation as well, in case people missed it.
1. Shortcuts choice is strictly a choice in order to utilize an existing edit software shortcuts, like FCPX or Premiere. In those editing packages there are no shortcuts for something like “Lightbox” or “Add version”, because they don’t exist. So, changing shortcuts to FCPX or Premiere should have no effect on any shortcuts not edit related. And under no circumstances should shortcuts just disappear, like it happens with with Lightbox, “Add version” or many others.
2. Opening old projects shouldn’t be the reason for Resolve to go to the old shortcuts as is the opening someone else’s projects on your system. Your choice should ALWAYS prevail, regardless of which project you open. Otherwise that’s not even a choice but a force.
I completely agree, that shortcuts should be moved to the Preference section. I can’t imagine anyone would NEED to change shortcut selection on per project basis.
Anyway, this “non bug” took way too much of my time and as I said earlier, i’m just going to file it under another weird BMD creative decision and learn to live with it.
