adding text
I don’t know what happened I could edit media generator a week or so ago. but not now. I made a new video, dragged a media event into a time line but is where it stays. I cant edit the sample text into what i want. I need the exact steps. I don’t see that in help or in forum

Is the dialog not showing up? If yes, it’s probably hidden under the start bar. Move the start bar out of the way and drag the window back where you can use it.
If it’s not there, it may be in one of the docking areas. If that’s where it is, just undock it and move it back to the main area of the screen.

When you say “dialog” I presume you mean what I use to do the editing of the text in the media, If so it is not under the start bar at the bottom of the page. If it is docked I suppose you mean what I am looking for is somewhere on the page but how do I identify it? What is it’s name? I clicked on every unknown pixel on the page almost looking for it. I have laptop with Vegas 9 too but it comes up with the same problem. Sample text in the trimmer window but no way to edit it. Some days ago I did put some text in a media event but cant remember why it showed up then but not now. I would just as soon make the text overlay the video but I cant even do that I don’t think. I managed to overlay some text the other day but the transparancy was wrong so just blocked the video out. You would think Vegas would have something about this in the help but I have not found it yet. I can run the procedure for inserting text found in help but still run into this. Thanks for trying to help/

Well I got the text event to show but don’t ask me what I did. Something over in the top right. But I got enough info to probably allow me to muddle though this phase of trying to make vegas work. Thanks
