Edit > Split (S) seems to be disabled about 50% of the time
(Thanks for your kind answers on previous posts.)
I’m a newby and I can’t figure this out:
It appears that in Vegas Movie Studio Platinum more times than not that the Split command is disabled (not enabled) meaning I cannot select it from the Edit menu to split current video item on the timeline.
I’ve clicked around and done as much investigation but I have not yet discovered a pattern.
Any ideas? I’m actually in the dark why it would *ever* be disabled!

Click the desired event and press the S (for Split) key.

Just to expand on Mikes reply:
Select an event and place the curser in that event. Press S and you will split that event. It works every time. If you have no event selected it will split all tracks under the curser. If you do not want to split the audio part of a grouped Vid/audio then (U)ngroup them first and then select the video event. -
Hi Terry:
Another problem I had with this feature is that when my memory is running low on my PC Vegas will not do some funtions including split. I simply click save and then shut down the program. Then go back in and things split or perform what I want perfectly once more. This can be a bit frustrating but on my machine it only happens occasionally and not enough to cause me major stress.
Cheers!

Don,
This may be a dumb question but do you ahve a lot of other processes running on your computer such as background processes and virus programs? -
It’s an older PC but I don’t have anything else running. Thanks for all your help. Since I’ve received feedback I haven’t had a problem with this.
