How do I add guidelines in DaVinci Resolve?

Published in DaVinci Resolve Editing 1 min read

You can add guidelines in DaVinci Resolve by using the "Add Vertical Guide" function, modifying the blend to change opacity, setting horizontal width to zero and panning.

Here's a breakdown of the process, based on the provided YouTube video information:

  1. Add a Vertical Guide: This function creates a line that you can use as a reference.
  2. Set Horizontal Width to Zero: This ensures the guide is a single, thin line.
  3. Pan the Guide: Move the guideline to the desired position.
  4. Modify the Blend (Opacity): Adjust the visibility of the guide to your preference.

Essentially, you're creating a visual aid within the DaVinci Resolve interface to help with alignment and composition during editing.
