  • Using “s” key to split

    Posted by Bob Moyer on January 12, 2014 at 3:48 pm

    Windows&/64/VegasPro10:
    Sometimes when editing, the ‘s’ key will not function to split the event . Any idea what I may be doing wrong? The video clip is .mts/5.1 sound.
    Thanks.
    Bob

    Make sure the Event is selected.

    Thank you Graham for your prompt reply. I will make sure it is selected next time. To be honest, I ‘thought’ I had selected it but now I can’t be positive!

    Thanks again,
    Bob

    Yes, as Bob said, the event has to be selected first.

    If no events are selected, it will split all events under the cursor

    If an event is selected under the cursor, it will only split the selected event(s)

    If an event is selected but no selected event is under the cursor, nothing will be split

    Thank you all. Graham was correct in assuming that I had not ‘selected’ the event. Once selected, all works fine.

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Bob, you’re very welcome.

    Vegas does a lot of “smart” stuff. This isn’t one of its best GUI talents. You aren’t alone.

    Grazie
