Vegas Pro 20 and the "Selectively Paste Event Attributes" function.

Nico1619 wrote on 4/22/2023, 10:18 PM

In Vegas Pro 20 I have used the "Selectively Paste Event Attributes" function to selectively paste pan/crop settings to other events BUT, for some reason the only attribute that does not paste is the "Maintain aspect ratio" attribute. For example, if I change the "Maintain aspect ratio" attribute to NO in one event and then copy and selectively paste to other events it does NOT change the "Maintain aspect ratio" to NO in those events. However, if I use the "Paste Event Attributes" function instead, this does paste all the pan/crop settings, including the "Maintain aspect ratio" to NO. BUT, the problem with this is that it changes all of the event transitions to match that of the event from which you are copying the attributes.

I am interested to know why the "Maintain aspect ratio" attribute is the only one that cannot be selectively copied and pasted using the "Selectively Paste Event Attributes" function or, am I the only one having this issue. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you.

G'day Nico, you're in the wrong forum. Try this one:

All my forum comments are based on or refer to my System 1.

My struggle is over! I built my (now) system 2 in 2011 when DV was king and MPEG 2 was just coming onto the scene and I needed a more powerful system to cope. Since then we've advanced to MP4 and to bigger and bigger resolutions. I was really suffering, not so much in editing (with proxies) but in encoding, which just took ages. A video, with Neat Video noise reduction applied, would encode at 12% of film speed. My new system 1 does the same job at 160% of film speed. Marvellous. I'm keeping my old system as a capture station for analogue video tapes and DV.
