    Recently coming from a Snell Kahuna switcher to the Ross Vision, there are some things that make creating box effects slightly more difficult on the Ross. Are there plans to have the keyer masks effect the entire screen as opposed to just the keyer itself? What I mean by this is, if you mask a key currently when you turn it into a fly key it doesn't stay within the mask you set and floats the key as you've masked it around the screen. On the Kahuna, you have the ability to both mask and crop the key. When you mask it, it stays within that mask and when you resize it doesn't leave that masked area - which is great because you don't have to use an ME wipe to assist in masking the boxes.

    Perhaps there's something missing and this can be achieved. I'd appreciate any assistance you could provide.

    Thanks,

    Scott

    Hi Scott,

    Yes there is a Feature on the Road Map to place the Mask "after" the DVE and not before it.

    This is actually the way it worked in Synergy SD and we need to make Vision support this behaviour as well.

    Thank you for your quick response, Les. I'm excited for this feature to make a return to the Ross switcher. It was a huge asset on the switcher I used previously.
