Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Keyframes not appearing

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    I have Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11.0. In my project I have two video tracks: the top is a simple text with the Float and Pop animation applied. The track below that is a simple video.

    I go into the Video Media Generators dialog to alter the animation of the text. I can’t set keyframes. I move the slider to where I want, click the keyframe button, and nothing happens. What’s going on? I get this problem intermittently on different projects.

    Thanks.

    You have to make sure that you highlight the parameter that you want to add keyframes to in the animation timeline. By default when you open the settings, no parameter is selected and keyframes cannot be added. Just click the Text track and you will be allows to add keyframes. Like this:

    It definitely did! Thank you.

    I didn’t even think that I had to select that animation track!

    Well… when you start animating several parameters, it needs to know which one to create the keyframe for so even when you have only one it still needs that one selected.
