  • Copy keyframes in Pro Titler?

    Posted by Michael Gyori on January 20, 2013 at 8:14 am

    I just created complicated motion for each letter in a title. Now I want to reverse the motion at the end of the sequence. I can’t figure out how to copy groups of keyframes in Pro Titler (Vegas 12 b394). Is there an easy way to copy the 60+ keyframes that I have for all the letters to a point further down the timeline?

    [Michael Gyori] “Is there an easy way”

    Try this:

    1] Hold down the Ctrl Key and SCRUB all the K/S – this will create a Selection of the K/S

    2] Now, WHILE the K/Fs are selected hold down the ALT key and DRAG the furthest, or nearest, K/F towards the beginning, or end, of the Selection. What you will find is that the distance between each and every K/F will be reduced equally (oh, BTW this is a neat trick for doing this in itself!) and you will keep closing the distance.

    3] KEEP going! You will first condense ALL the k/Fs into a “stack” – scary! – BUT keep going through this pile-up and OUT the other side. What I have here, using a simple GenMEd Changing Colour is that the K/S have rearranged into a reverse order. Neat!

    Failing the above, render out sequence and just reverse that.

    Sorry Grazie, but you have to remember that the keyframe interface in Pro Titler is completely different than the keyframe interface everywhere else in Vegas. It doesn’t seem to be possible to select keyframes on different tracks/attributes in Pro Titler… you can only drag select multiple keyframes for the same attribute horizontally.

    But your render and reverse suggestion might accomplish what I need. Thanks.

    My mistake. Of course.
