    Hi, everyone,

    Doing a highlight reel for a high school football student. To highlight him on the field, I’m using the Oval Side Cookie Cutter. For some reason, after 10 or so events of using this, the Oval Side simply becomes a circle. I have selected all the other shapes and they work fine, but when I come back to Oval Side, I simply get a circle.

    Any clues?

    thanks…

    Do you have any keyframes set? It sounds like one is changing the shape back to the default of circle. If you’re using keyframes to move the shape around, understand that each keyframe stores every setting in that window. Click each keyframe and verify that the correct shape is chosen at that point in time. Start with any that are at or near the moment where the shape changes.

    Thanks, Rob, but that’s not it. There are no keyframes. I can get any other shape but the side oval.

    Interesting. I opened a new session of Vegas and copied and pasted the video clip, inserted an oval (which worked), then copied and pasted that clip back into my original timeline. It went back to circle.
