Hi. I'm trying to do it with Davinci Resolve 18 but doesn't work (I'm sure I did something wrong)... immediately after "erasing" it seems I've done nothing, no way to view the animation moving the curson in "write on"... could you please help me? Thanks :)

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

Make sure you use the single Stroke tool, not the MultiStroke, I can take a look if you share a screen recording.

Hi! I am trying to follow along with this but after drawing over the animation to disappear, no red drawline appears! Am I missing a step or is this tool bugged in the current version of Resolve? When using the Polyline stroke lines with small squares separating the mouse clicks to appear but the stroke tool with the adjustable circle size would give more precise control. Any ideas?

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

Please make sure to use the Stroke tool to draw the strokes, NOT the multi stroke.

[@StoneEdges]

ah I found the answer a bit lower in the comments, disabling and re-enabling the stroke eventually fixes it, for some reason it doesn't show up straight away after drawing it

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

@@StoneEdges That's great, thanks for the update!

[@cameramon]

I can use this. thx

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

You are welcome, glad it's helpful!

[@stevesculptor1]

Having all kinds of problems with this. I'm not getting any mask line showing after drawing? Sliding the 'write on' nothing is happening?

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

Please make sure to use the single stroke tool (01:40)

[@donaldcharby315]

Really like the way you show how to do it . After trying a dozen time i cannot complete the effect. After (erasing or drawing over the arrow on the mask) when i invert it, i have no path visible as yours on the arrow. So write on is not possible. I've look to all your setting and mine are the same. Any suggestion?

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

It sounds like you are using the "MultiStroke" (not animatable), you need to choose "Stroke" in the toolbar before starting erase.

[@LucianaContartese]

I had the same issue with the Stroke tool. After you draw the mask go to Modifiers and on top you'll see your strokes (for example, I masked three strokes so I have "Stroke 1", "Stroke 2" and "Stroke 3" and they have a red button next to each other. Just click in the Stroke name (not the red button because you'll disable the mask, but you can turn it on pressing the button again if that happens). And once you click on that "Stroke" name you'll see the the path. Hope you could understand, is kinda hard to explain in a comment hehe Or you can just click where you just draw your mask and the path should appear too.

[@heimobosch6094]

Warum hast du nicht die Polylinestrock benützt? Why didn't you use the Polylinestrock for Mask?

[@EssentialVideoEditing]

Thank you for the comment! Yes, you can use the polylinestroke, but I prefer the stroke tool because it's more flexible and easier to trace the image lines/corners, both tools are basically the same behind the scene, you can always convert stroke to ployline stroke if needed.
