Double clicking the top blue header usually opens the window fully

Many thanks.. it was getting cold out here in the dog house. Even the dog had left me.

Sorry about the double-up reply… something odd was happening with posts being intercepted and not posted… anyway, hope it helped along with Steve’s info.

If you are trying to split the track without first selecting it, then Vegas by default will split all tracks at the cursor.

If you want to split just the video or audio of a grouped event, select the ungroup button in the tool bar first, select the track, and split. Remember to turn off ungrouping when done.

If you mean you are splitting tracks you don’t want to split, then it is because you pressed “S” without selecting the required track first. Without selecting a track, Vegas splits all tracks at the cursor. Audio and video of a combined track will be split unless to cancel grouping and select either the video or audio track.

Sorry Graham. I thought I said that at the outset. Just confused here 🙁

Yes, Steve. It was turned off. The Black Witch must be flying over my house today… All of a sudden the Project Media window became messed up in that the contents of the folders were missing or more strangely migrated to another folder. Seems to be a memory handling issue, as it has happened before in VP11. Close down and restart brings things back to normal.

I have never had so many issues with Vegas.

Interesting to note is that I have two system drives (SSD) ditto on this computer that I can swap around, one with Win7 Pro and Vegas alone, the other ditto but with Adobe Master suite CS 5.5 installed. Both configurations exhibit the same problem.

All media, scrap and render files are on drives other than C (System drive)meaning the only common denominator is Vegas and Win 7. Drivers are the same and the latest apart from the new beta Nvidia.

Thanks Graham.. yes I did do all that. I am quite particular about getting initial settings correct.

Definately.. project properties are set to the media I am editing. Fortunately all my work is on mxf files from an EX3, so the settings are always the same… but I checked anyway 🙂

Something else. I tried the “Expanded Edit mode” and when I pressed Num key 5 to exit the mode, Vegas froze, necessitating a restart.

I’m beginning to wonder about VP12.

Odd that what would be a major upgrade should not be announced ahead of release. Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice.
