Default composition size

Post by Oaktown »

It'd be great to have an option to change the default composition size from 640x480 to what we actually want.

Even if we don't get the option to change the default size, let's make the default size something a little more inline with our current era ;) I'm sure when Resolume first came out 640x480 was the thing but let's face it, is there really anyone out there working with 640x480 comps anymore?

Yeah, being forced to a default that I never use annoys me too. This should either be a value set in the Defaults tab, or take the resolution of the previously used comp.

+1 ;)

Btw, you'd be surprised to see how many of the footage packs are still ordered in 640x480.

For those who like to fiddle around with xml files: i discovered last week that this can actually be changed in the Documents/Resolume Arena 5/preferences/config.xml file. The avenue/settings/composition element has a defaultWidth and defaultHeight attribute you can change.
Ofcourse this is no replacement for a nice little gui, but it may help you for now :)

is there an xml setting like this, which would change the default composition beat snap to 'none'?
