Looking for a Keyboard Shortcut for taking a screenshot!!!

[Angelo Mike]

Did you check Vegas preferences? Maybe you can set it to be a keyboard shortcut there. But somehow, if there isn’t already one, I doubt you can make one. In which case, suggest it as a new feature to Sony. I’m amazed at how simple some of the Project Media management settings make so much sense in Vegas 13 and wonder how they weren’t implemented years ago.

Nothing in the KeyBoard Commands

Justin, just how many do you want to do? I’ve been happy just to click on the ICON. But maybe you’re wanting to do more than ONE at a time? There are several scripts that will take Shots from Markers or Events. Once you are using a Script, this will then reveal itself as a possible KB command(?).

But straight off the bat? Nope.

Grazie

Hi Grazie!

Yes, I do video work for a Skydive Company and I pull stills for the customer. I basically just click through different parts of the edited video and then click the “save snapshot to file” icon, but it’s pain having to move the cursor down to the footage, click on a part, then move the cursor back up to the “save snapshot” icon and on and on. I would love to click then keep my other finger on a keyboard shortcut and just rapid fire save stills as I go through the footage, ya know? If there is some script that can make my life easier, I would be super excited to learn about it! Thanks for your response

One of the options is Snapshots tool from Vegasaur extension (commercial). It comes with Take Snapshot 1-Click command that you can assign a shortcut to (in Customize Keyboard window). All your snapshots are collected in the Snapshots window. At the end, select the desired snapshots and click Export button.
