Re Vegas Pro shortcuts - no, I don't think so, but your easy resource for this sort of thing in Vegas Pro is Help/Keyboard Shortcuts.

Vegasaur doesn't appear to have this function - something like this doesn't appear under the General menu heading. Somebody with Happy Otter Scripts would know if HOS has this as a function. Others with scripting knowledge would be able to comment re scripting.

I found an old reply from @Marco. here: https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/vegas-feature-request-move-event-to-end--121450/#ca756510

There is some kind of script, but the link is dead now...

The link to this macro (provided in a later comment) still works.

I just tried Ctrl+E in VP18 - it opens SoundForge Pro even on an audio-less media generated event. I imagine that it may have been different with the script.

Could you please upload AHK script instead of .exe?

@Marco. I also tried the compiled AHK script, but ALT+E or CTRL+E doesn't work

If that may be helpful to you - I wrote a macro for the Contour Shuttle Pro.
The two shortcuts listed by you do not work for me either.

Is there any way to return the playhead to the starting position? (I mean the same position where it was before the start of the script)?

Unfortunately, I do not know that - but a good question - would interest me too.

Well, the script would need to find the event and then move it to the end of the timeline. But that should be a fairly simple task... You could use the base project I create here:

http://www.jetdv.com/2021/02/01/what-is-the-minimum-i-need-to-write-a-script-for-vegas/

And then add this code in the "main" section:

            foreach (Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
            {
                foreach (TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if (evnt.Selected)
                    {
                        evnt.Start = myVegas.Project.Length;
                        evnt.Selected = false;
                    }
                }
            }

Edward, it would be great if you can upload the compiled script here.

My programming knowledge is far worse than yours to dive into programming :)

@Ustik, If you go to that link, the base script is downloadable from there. You can copy this text into the "Main" routine in the "Class1.CS" file. Then you can rename and copy the "Class1.CS" file as needed and run that directly in Vegas. The whole thing would look like (name the file something like "MoveSelectedEventsToEndOfProject.cs"):
 

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

namespace Test_Script
{
    public class Class1
    {
        public Vegas myVegas;

        public void Main(Vegas vegas)
        {
            myVegas = vegas;

            foreach (Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
            {
                foreach (TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if (evnt.Selected)
                    {
                        evnt.Start = myVegas.Project.Length;
                        evnt.Selected = false;
                    }
                }
            }

        }
    }
}

public class EntryPoint
{
    public void FromVegas(Vegas vegas)
    {
        Test_Script.Class1 test = new Test_Script.Class1();
        test.Main(vegas);
    }
}

But it still might be wise to look at the tutorials at www.jetdv.com to see more details about how creating scripts can work.

Thanks a lot, it worked! I added a shortcut to your script and it does exactly what I needed :)

@jetdv

Actually, it moves video and audio individually... Is it possible to move the whole event together? Even when I select both parts they end up unsynced...

@Ustik, yeah, it moves everything selected "to the end" so the end changes as each piece is moved. That little version is not smart enough to know if there's a linked audio piece to go with the video. This modification will do both assuming the audio starts at the same time and is part of the same file. It's not the most elegant method but will work: so change the text in the "Main" routine to:

            myVegas = vegas;

            Timecode oldStart = null;
            Timecode newStart = null;
            string oldFile = null;
            foreach (Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
            {
                foreach (TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if (evnt.Selected)
                    {
                        oldStart = evnt.Start;
                        oldFile = evnt.ActiveTake.MediaPath;
                        evnt.Start = myVegas.Project.Length;
                        newStart = evnt.Start;
                        evnt.Selected = false;
                    }
                }

                foreach (TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if ((evnt.Start == oldStart) && (evnt.ActiveTake.MediaPath == oldFile))
                    {
                        evnt.Start = newStart;
                    }
                }
            }

With the above modification, ONLY select the video portion and the matching audio portion should also be moved. And only select a SINGLE video file - otherwise it will only move the audio for the "last" one as it's still not smart enough to move multiples.

Alternately, we could make everything selected move to the current end of the project. However, if you selected two items on the same track, they would both be moved to the same location so the above code is probably the best option. But here's the other option:
 

            myVegas = vegas;

            Timecode newStart = myVegas.Project.Length;
            foreach (Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
            {
                foreach (TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if (evnt.Selected)
                    {
                        evnt.Start = newStart;
                        evnt.Selected = false;
                    }
                }
            }
