CREATING A PROJECT CHP. 4
Arranging files on the timeline
Once you’ve assembled the media files for your project, you’re ready to begin arranging them on the timeline
(although you can add more media files to your Media Pool at any time in the creation process). Vegas
Movie Studio software has three video tracks for arranging files such as video and still photos, and three
audio tracks for arranging files such as music, voice, and sound effects.
From the Media Pool or Explorer tabs, there are two ways you can add files to the timeline: by double-
clicking, or by dragging and dropping the file. Once a file is inserted into the timeline, it is called an event.
Before inserting the file on the timeline, you should specify in which track you want to position the event by
clicking once on the track to select it. If you use the double-click method to place the file, the event is
placed at the current cursor position on the selected track. If you use the drag-and-drop method to place the
file, you control the location of the event by releasing the mouse button. You can add events from multiple
media files and file types to a single track, with the restriction that audio files must be placed on audio tracks,
and video files must be placed on video tracks. Once an event is positioned on a track, you can always move
it around on the track, or you can move it to a different track until you are satisfied with its placement. For
more information on moving events, please see Moving events along the timeline on page 21. For more information on
selecting events, please see Selecting events on page 22.
Editing events on the timeline
Vegas Movie Studio software allows you to perform simple event-level editing. This editing includes
common copying, pasting, and deleting operations. However, these editing procedures and how they are
implemented depend on what type of selection is made: event only, time only, or event and time.
Copying events
Vegas Movie Studio software allows you to copy events, or portions of events, to the Windows® clipboard
and paste them into your project. You may copy a single event or multiple events. Copying preserves the
original event information, edits, and other modifications.
1.
Click on the events to select them. For more information, see Selecting multiple events on page 22.
2.
Select your time range, if applicable.
3.
Copy the event to the clipboard by doing one of the following:
Press the keys.
From the Edit menu, choose Copy.
Copy time selection
Events within the time selection and across all tracks are reproduced and placed on the clipboard. Time
information is also placed on the clipboard. You can make a time selection first and then select events within
that time selection to further modify a selection.
Events before copy Clipboard contents Events after copy
The original events are not
affected and do not
change.
