Can’t paste DVDA page into Vegas
I wanted to save one of the pages that I had created in DVDA 3 & paste it into Vegas. It copied to the clipboard OK,since I can paste it back into DVDA but when I try to paste it into Vegas there is no option available to paste from clipboard. Am I missing something or is there some other way to do it?
Thanks in advance

Paste it into your paint program, save it to disk, and then add that file to the timeline.

“Am I missing something . . ” Yes, and that is you CAN’T paste, what is in effect, a GRAPHIC directly onto the Vegas timeline. That’s the clue! You need its file to be IMPORTED to the veg project first. (. .see below)
“ . . or is there some other way to do it?” – Yes. Source just WHERE the page/background comes from: JPG, PNG, BMP or whatever and then IMPORT that into your veg project. Once you have it there, THEN you can plop it onto the Vegas Timeline. However, you can also “drag” it from its containing folder directly OR Media Manager onto the timeline. But, copy>paste – nope! And yes, you CAN copy and Paste AVIs from Veg to Veg!!

Thanks guys. I copied it to the clipboard, then opened it in paint where it was saved as a BMP. From there it was pasted onto the end of a clip on the Vegas time line. This clip was my first play file. The picture was of the first view of the scene where my play all or scene selection options were displayed.
It all works OK except for one tiny thing. It appears that the size of the picture is a slightly different size but its only out my a pixel or two.
Thanks in advance
