    I am trying to arrange the events from two separate cameras chronologically across the timeline. I can retrieve each event’s date/time stamp by clicking their respective properties, then clicking the “general” tab, but this is fairly slow and cumbersome.

    Is their a way to readily display each events date/time stamp, by simply highlighting the event? For instance, is their a way to change the “active take information” display, to show date/time rather than the event title?

    I have tried the “edit details” tab, and while it displays the event length, start and stop times, it does not display the date/time info.

    One better answer to this problem is to activate the “project media” tab, then highlight the event, right click, then push “i” (select project media list). This action causes the Project Media Display to jump to the highlighted event, in the project media list. This display does show the date/time stamp.

    This is not ideal, but fewer clicks than the above method.

    Is there a faster way to access these event date/time stamps?

    The last version of Vegasaur toolkit has “Sort Events Chronologically” command that will do what you want. In addition you can use Quick Properties tool to rearrange clips by timecode, by rec date, in a reverse or in a random order.

    I’ll take a look at the product. Sounds interesting. Thank you for the reply.
