Vegas Pro Text&Tittles Scripting
how to enter text&titles by marker from csv format I get the error:
C:\Program Files\VEGAS\VEGAS Pro 20.0\Script Menu\Tittle.cs(108) : ‘ScriptPortal.Vegas.PlugInNode’ does not contain a definition for ‘CreateEffect’ and no extension method ‘CreateEffect’ accepting a first argument of type ‘ScriptPortal.Vegas.PlugInNode’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

using System.Windows.Forms;
using ScriptPortal.Vegas;
using System.Collections.Generic;

// Read CSV var csvData = ReadCSV(csvFilePath);
if (csvData == null || csvData.Count == 0) { MessageBox.Show(“Failed to read CSV or CSV is empty.”);
return;
} // Get all markers var markers = vegas.Project.Markers;

// Insert Datas & Text into timeline InsertDataAtMarker(vegas, marker.Position, Data, Desk);
} MessageBox.Show(“Data inserted successfully according to markers.”);

try { using (var reader = new StreamReader(filePath)) { while (!reader.EndOfStream) { var line = reader.ReadLine();
var values = line.Split(‘|’); // Assuming ‘|’ is the separator if (values.Length >= 2) { csvData.Add(new CSVData { Data = values[0], Description = values[1] });
} } } } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(“Error reading CSV: ” + ex.Message);
} return csvData;

From what it looks like to me, it seems like a missing critical file on your Vegas PRO folder. If you are unable to locate the file through the search, I would suggest you try uninstalling your Vegas PRO and reinstalling the whole application again to see if you are able to get those files back in the proper location so you can use the text features within the application. Hope it works for you and that I hear from you soon!
