This macro takes a set of six individual 90° FOV based cubic view source images and "defishes" it to extract a normal rectangular image (like a typical 16:9 or 4:3 style video frame) that can be displayed on a regular TV or a monitor.
This is handy as an panoramic 360° image viewer that works in the Fusion node based environment. You can animate the XYZ rotation and field of view settings to explore different parts of the frame as you do the panoramic conversion.
The "Width" and "Height" controls are used to specify the vertical and horizontal resolution of the extracted camera view.
The "Pixel Aspect" control can be used to create anamorphic stretching look if you want to go with a non square pixel format.
The "Depth" control allows you to specify the bit depth for the panoramic output. The "8bit int" option is for PNG/TGA/JPG outputs, and the "16bit float" or "32bit float" options are perfect for floating point EXR based outputs that have HDR (high dynamic range) based color values that exceed the standard 0.0-1.0 color range.
The "Angle of View Type" control allows you to choose which axis is used on the lens when the Focal Length and Angle of View value is computed.
The "Angle of View" control changes the camera field of view setting in degrees used for the panoramic view extraction. The "Focal Length (mm)" control is linked together with the Angle of View control so you can use either slider and achieve the same field of view result.
The "Film Gate", "Aperture Width", "Aperture Height", and "Lens Shift X" and Y values are used to match your Fusion macro based extracted camera view against a traditional photographic lens based camera parameter.
The "Lens Shift X" and "Lens Shift Y" parameters allow you to adjust the 2D filmback based centering of the lens compared to the origin of a theoretical film back on the camera.
The "Rotation Order" control allows you to control the precedence for each of the rotation axis. This is helpful when you need to solve gimbal lock by selecting the most important rotation channel for your camera animation and making it the first of the three axes listed in the Rotation Order settings.
The X Rotation/Y Rotation/Z Rotation sliders are used to spin the orientation of the view around and can be used to level the horizon. The "Z Rotation" slider lets you perform a horizontal panning effect on the camera view which can be used to adjust and re-center the front facing part of the panoramic image.
If you have a TV or video projector connected in the Fusion preferences as a "Video Monitoring Device", you can view a final extracted 16:9 rectangular video version of your composite on a full screen video display.
To use this node, individual 90° FOV based cubic view source images are connected to the node's colored inputs named Front, Right, Back, Left, Top, and Bottom attributes. There is a single image output from the node called "Output".
The image below shows an example conversion from the composite file Viewer Cubic Faces.comp.
Note: If you hover your cursor over each of the colored triangle inputs on the node you will see a tool tip appear that indicates what the currently selected input is called.
This macro takes a set of six individual 90° FOV based cubic view source images for the left and right eye and "defishes" it to extract a stereoscopic rectangular image (like a typical 16:9 or 4:3 style video frame) that can be displayed on a stereo TV or a monitor.

The image below shows an example conversion from the composite file Viewer Cubic Faces.comp that has a Gear VR horizontal strip stereo cubemap image (on the left) that is run through the ViewerCubicFacesStereo macro and extracted into a pair of left and right rectangular stereo views. Those two images are then merged into an anagylph stereo output with the help of a StereoAnaglyphHalfColorMerge macro. This kind of approach allows you to quickly and cost effectively preview the stereo imagery on your monitor as you work on building a 360° stereo composite.

To use this node, individual 90° FOV based cubic view source images are connected to the node's colored inputs named LeftCam_Front, LeftCam_Right, LeftCam_Back, LeftCam_Left, LeftCam_Top, LeftCam_Bottom, RightCam_Front, RightCam_Right, RightCam_Back, RightCam_Left, RightCam_Top, and RightCam_Bottom attributes. There are two image outputs from the node called "LetOutput" and "RightOutput" that hold the left and right extracted and defished image views.
Note: If you hover your cursor over each of the colored triangle inputs on the node you will see a tool tip appear that indicates what the currently selected input is called.
This macro takes a 360° x 180° equirectangular/LatLong/spherical panorama and "defishes" it to extract a normal rectangular image (like a typical 16:9 or 4:3 style video frame) that can be displayed on a normal TV or a monitor.

The "Lock X/Y/Z" checkbox will link together the "Scale" control into a single unified slider. When this slider is un-checked you will have direct control over the Scale X/Scale Y/Scale Z controls which allow for non-proportional scaling.
The Scale control allows you to change the size of the mesh used in the texture baking operation. If the model is extremely large or small it can be helpful to change the scale setting control so the model fits within Fusion's default near and far clipping plane regions.
If you disable the "Lock X/Y/Z" checkbox you can create cartoon like squash and stretch distortions in the environment map imagery by doubling the Scale value on a single axis in relation to the other scale controls.
