Auto-Rename

Never get confused by generically named Fusion nodes in DaVinci Resolve again.

Automatically rename:

• 'MediaIn' nodes to their file names,
• 'Background' nodes to their colors and
• 'Text+'/'Text3D' nodes to their text contents
• All layers of a 'MultiMerge' node to the names of their input nodes

All with a single click!

Usage:

• Open the Fusion page

• Run this script from DaVinci Resolve's dropdown menu (Workspace > Scripts)

• This will automatically rename all unnamed "MediaIn", "Background", "Text+" and "Text 3D" nodes to logical display names

  • This will also rename all layers in the LayerList of a "MultiMerge" node to the names of their input nodes

• This works best if bound to a hotkey! (open hotkey settings with CTRL+ALT+K)

Install:

• Copy the .lua-file into the folder "%appdata%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Scripts\Comp"

The function for conversion from RGB to CIELAB color space is taken from WetDesertRock's vivid project and adapted slightly to fit this project:
