  • Event FX/Effects don’t show up

    Posted by Aly Steinbach on December 19, 2010 at 9:33 pm

    Okay, It has been like this for a long time, but now I have found CreativeCOW.net and I am wondering if anyone will help me. I’ve tried to solve the problem but for some reason the problem I’m having seems unsolvable.

    Here we go, I open up Vegas Pro 9 perfectly fine, but when I have a picture/video clip in the timeline I will want to edit it. So I click Event FX or I go to Video FX and choose what I want as an effect. So, say I’m doing it by clicking Event FX for my video, The screen for Event FX pops up (the plug-in chooser or whatever) okay, and then I will click on whatever effect I want, (let’s say black and white is what I want to use) Anyways, I will click on Sony Black and White, & instead of letting me edit/adjust the settings nothing will pop up. This makes me angry, because I really want to adjust my settings. Okay, and then, when I click on Video FX, I will click cookie cutter, and say I want it to be a really big circle in the screen. I will click Cookie cutter, click one of the options, drag it to my video/picture and nothing will pop up to let me adjust it.

    It has been like this for a long time and everything I try doesn’t work. Please help.

    Also, One time while I was editing, I was able to change/adjust/edit the effects. I wanted to see what it looked like so I put the Video FX so the side. I saw the preview of my video, but then when I tried to drag the Video FX back up, I couldn’t find it and I tried to restart Sony Vegas, and it hasn’t worked since then.

    Thanks for any one who has tried to help me,
    angry-vidder.

    The panels are still there hidden behind other panels…So
    instead of going through all the Thigamajigg, Simply reset Vegas
    by holding down the ctrl and shift Keys while launching Vegas.
