  • Annoying Dashed Frame around video in preview window…Overlay

    Having a problem De-Selecting a setting I selected by mistake… right above the preview window is a Drop down menu (OVERLAYS) where you can select different setting like Grid, Safe Area, Green, Red etc….WEll I clicked “Safe Area” to see what it was and now I cannot get it to go away unless I click something else in the Drop Down menu…I don’t want ANY of the choices but its seems like I am “Damned” and have no choice outside the box…Man how frustrating. How do I get rid of this thing? THanks

    Click the box itself without touching the dropdown. It’s a toggle switch.

    I wouldn’t feel bad, it’s not obvious that it’s a button. I find that most of the button highlighting in Vegas is far too subtle. Like on the Options menu… I can’t tell which ones are checked and which one’s aren’t. Icons are nice but a big check mark or a drastic color change would be even better. Glad I could help.
