Slide all Events on All Tracks
Can someone please tell me how I can take all the events on all four tracks that I have open and move them all forward about 3 seconds and keep everything together as they move?
Also, my default Empty Events is 7 seconds. Is there a way to shorten this default time? How can I change the default time?
Thanks,

First — make sure you have snapping turned on.
Second – select your leftmost clip out of everything you want to move right. Click the left event edge of that clip. Now hit “ctrl g” and then type “+300” followed by “enter.” You have now moved the position bar three seconds forward. Now move your selected clip forward until it’s left edge snaps to the positioner. Now hit “ctrl shift F” (which is post ripple all tracks, markers, etc).You could turn on ripple and set it to all tracks before moving your clip. Or — you can do the post ripple as I described above. The neat thing aobut Vegas is that you can choose your own preferred method. There are usually 3-4 ways to do anything.
Experiment a bit. You can always undo anything.

It should be the same as setting normal event times. Options – Preferences – Editing – New still image length (seconds).

Hey Guys,
Thanks so much for your help.

BTW, if you’re working in NTSC, change your default still length from whatever it is now to a number thatmakes a whole number of frames. For instance, if it is currently set to 5.000 secs, increment it up to 5.005. The idea is to increment it up or down until the frame count changes. You want these new events to add up to a whole number of frames.
5 seconds = 149.85 frames
5.005 seconds = 150.00 frames (really 149.99999999985 frames, but it’s as close as you’ll get)Rob Mack
