Input Sizing Controls
DaVinci Resolve has an optical-quality image resizing engine that can be used to position or resize
images with such high precision that you can resize the image using dynamics and see the changes in
real time.

cache; Cache All to cache all clips; Cache D to cache all dissolves; Cache
User to cache individual clips marked by you for caching, ; and Cache + to
cache dissolves plus user-selected clips.
Ref Resize: When On, the reference clips can be resized and repositioned.
Ref Mode: The reference for grading can be the Gallery stills, any clip on the Timeline
or the Offline clip.
Wipe Type: The available wipe modes are Horizontal, Vertical, Mix, and Key.
Convergence: In Stereoscopic 3D operation, when you adjust the convergence of the
two eyes there are two modes: Opposite, where the convergence control
moves each eye away or towards each other, and Linked Zoom, where
there is insufficient image to fill the screen due to the convergence
adjustment and the images will automatically zoom to fill the screen.
Stereo Grade: Resolve 3D projects can be graded in Solo mode when only one eye is
adjusted by the grade or Gang mode when both eyes are graded together.
The active eye is also indicated here.
Stereo Display: The display output can be a single eye, i.e. Mono or both eyes, Stereo,
as required.
