Use the Tools Settings page to configure keyframe, animation, dissolve, dust, colour isolation and reference image settings
for this user.
- All Tools option box
-
Toggle to select the default keyframe interpolation mode for all tools, except the input and output primary grading.
NoteThe settings in the All Tools sub-group do not affect tools in the Colour > Grading menu.
Select: |
|
Linear |
Select to use a linear default interpolation for all tools. The linear interpolation joins keyframes with a straight line.
This affects all parameters (other than the input and output primary grading) in the Colour menu.
|
Bezier |
Select to make the default interpolation for all tools to be Bezier. The bezier interpolation produces a smooth curve with
a smooth transition between keyframes and each keyframe on the curve has tangent handles. This affects all parameters (other
than the input and output primary grading) that are in the Colour menu.
|
Constant |
Select to use a constant default interpolation for all tools. Constant interpolation produces a square curve. This affects
all parameters (other than the input and output primary grading) in the Colour menu.
|
Hermite |
Enable to make the default interpolation for all tools Hermite. Hermite interpolation produces a smooth curve with a smooth
transition between keyframes. This affects all parameters (other than the input and output primary grading) in the Colour
menu.
|
- Primary Tools option box
-
Toggle to select the default keyframe interpolation mode for all primary grading tools.
Select: |
|
Linear |
Select to use a linear default interpolation for all primary grading tools. The linear interpolation joins keyframes with
a straight line. This affects all parameters within the Colour menu for input and output primary grading.
|
Bezier |
Select to make the default interpolation for primary grading tools to be Bezier. The bezier interpolation produces a smooth
curve with a smooth transition between keyframes and each keyframe on the curve has tangent handles. This affects all parameters
within the Colour menu for input and output primary grading.
|
Constant |
Select to use a constant default interpolation for all tools. Constant interpolation produces a square curve. This affects
all parameters within the Colour menu for input and output primary grading.
|
Hermite |
Select to make the default interpolation for primary grading tools Hermite. The hermite interpolation produces a smooth curve
with a smooth transition between keyframes. This affects all parameters within the Colour menu for input and output primary
grading.

- ACS Animation System button
-
Enable to have Lustre mimic the behavior of the ACS panel when animating from the user interface. Using the ACS Panel, Lustre
automatically updates the first keyframe in your timeline whenever a keyed parameter is modified before the first keyframe
or the last keyframe in your timeline whenever a keyed parameter is modified after the last keyframe.
- Shot Based Auto Key button
-
Enable to activate the Auto-key button on a shot basis rather than having AutoKey active for all the shots.
- Hide Inactive Curves button
-
Enable to hide animation curves that are not in use. Hiding inactive curves can make it easier for you to manage your keyframes
and modify your animations.
- Autoscroll Playback button
-
Enable to configure
Lustre's default behaviour to scroll automatically when the positioner plays off the edge of the Channel Editor or Timeline.
- Hide Inactive Tangents button
-
Enable to hide tangent handles for keyframes that are not selected.
- Lock Keyframe move button
-
Enable to allow only vertical movement when dragging a keyframe.
NoteYou can temporarily override locked movement by holding down the Shift key and dragging the keyframe horizontally. If you
want to move the keyframe without any restrictions, disable the Lock Keyframe Movement button.
- Duration Slider
-
Use to set the default duration, in frames, of dissolves.
- Orientation option box
-
Toggle to select Centered, From Cut or Up To Cut as the default orientation of dissolves.
- Curve Type option box
-
Toggle to select Dissolve or Blend as the default curve type for dissolves.
- Interpolation Mode option box
-
Toggle to select Constant, Linear, Hermite or Bezier as the default interpolation mode for dissolves.
- Contrast slider
-
Use to set the amount of contrast used to find dust during automatic analysis. Low contrast values cause the algorithm to
accept low colour value differences between corresponding pixels on the current, previous, and next frames. Therefore, low
values result in more complete removal of the artefact. However, if the contrast is set lower than actually needed, adjacent
pixels are modified more than actually required to remove the dust.
- Grow slider
-
Use to control the number of pixels around the pixels detected by
Lustre.
- Soft Edge slider
-
Use to soften the stroke of the pixels specified by the Grow slider in order to replicate a natural paint stroke.
- Load Dust Data button
-
Enable to load the dust removal metadata after you have already loaded the grade.
- Reference Image field
-
Enter, or browse to, the path of the reference image. Then, you can press
Shift+K to load the image into the single file system for reference and then view the image by pressing
L. For information about defining paths, see
Browsing for Paths.
- Log to Lin button
-
Enable to apply colour transformation prior to keyer input processing.
- Soften slider
-
Use to reduce image grain and noise and to keep edges intact prior to keyer input processing.
- Default keyer option box
-
Toggle to select the Diamond Keyer or the HLS Keyer as the default keyer in the secondary menu.
NoteThe default keyer setting only applies to ungraded shots and unused secondaries. A loaded grade file has priority over this
setting. This means that the keyer that was used to grade a shot or modify a secondary is the keyer that will be displayed.
- Softness Scale slider
-
Use to adjust the scale of the Softness Diamond on the hue cube for the Diamond Keyer.
