[Tig] Powergrade on the DaVinci

[Mithun D'Souza]

Hello everybody!
Need some more help.

I am basically writing to you all because we stumbled upon a roadblock in
our adventure to figuring out the Powergrade Tools.

We are currently working on a 2k Board and we've managed to capture new
Powegrades in the Powergrade Window. Most of the color grades and controls
of our VSR's have been manipulated over the Spirit Telecine Controls and for
some reason when we are applying the Powergrade, only the primaries are
applying onto the base grade.

My question is, how excatly do i apply the entire grade which includes the
Spirit Telecine Controls (which are not the base grades), the primaries, the
kilovectors, noise reducer, the defocus elements to the clip?

Also, when we select and deselect the channels that automatically get
highlighted when we select the ACTIVE button and click apply, there is no
changes that are visible in the grade. Could there be something that i am
doing wrong or applying wrongly?

Also, there is another small issue of selecting Autopop. When i am working
on PAGE 1, which has all my control panels open and when I click on the
SCROLL, it takes me to a new PAGE. Is there a way to enable the SCROLL MODE
to popup on the same page, without navigating me to a new page?

Any response will be much appreciated

Thanks and warm regards
Mithun D'Souza
