2 quick questions / annoyances
Is there anyway to drag your mouse across the timeline and not have it select the video portion dragged across ala adobe premiere ?
and, if I’m playing from the timeline, and click my mouse on another future clip, is there anyway to jump to this spot without with continuous playback ? when you stop, it jumps back to where the cursor was instead of continuing to play at this new spot…
couple of minor things I have never spent anytime trying to figure out..
thanks

#1 In Vegas 6 you can drag the playhead. In Vegas 5 and 6 you can drag the cursor.
#2 Use PAUSE instead of STOP. I changed my spacebar to be Play/Pause because I want it to “stop where the cursor currently is”.

You can also use the enter key for a stop button. Space for rewind back to where you started…Enter for stop where you’re at.

thanks for the repsonses…
one thing though, I don’t think you understand one part so I will try to explain it better.
Lets say we are playing from the timeline. I jump far ahead – to another scene and the cursor is no longer visible but its still playing…If you want to jump the cursor to that far ahead spot, how do you do it ??
If you hit stop / enter, you jump back to that point…cheers…

Just click on a blank area of the timeline. The cursor will jump to that position and continue playing.
