Push
Simple pixel translation
Moves an image horizontally and vertically with a minimal two-control interface.
This tool belongs to the Krokodove set integrated into DaVinci Resolve 21 and Fusion Studio 21. See the complete Krokodove node list and the comparison with native Fusion tools.

Push is a lightweight choice for straightforward drift, compensation or small animated offsets where a full Transform node would be unnecessary.
Overview
What Push does
Push is a lightweight choice for straightforward drift, compensation or small animated offsets where a full Transform node would be unnecessary.
Think of Push as grabbing the entire image plane and sliding it on X and Y without changing scale, angle or perspective.
Mental model
Think of Push as grabbing the entire image plane and sliding it on X and Y without changing scale, angle or perspective.

Troubleshooting
Common mistakes
Pushing Push farther than the source resolution can support
Animating several Push controls that fight each other instead of choosing one clear primary control
Judging Push edge quality only in a proxy or reduced-resolution Viewer
Production notes
Practical tips
Keep the main Push transform logic together instead of scattering equivalent adjustments across several nodes.
After a strong Push deformation, inspect image edges and alpha for stretching or resampling artifacts.
Preview animated Push work at normal playback speed as well as frame by frame.
