A few more questions for the experts

If you accidently drag a large file onto the timeline that hasn't been there before the building peaks routine starts. Is there any way to abort this process?


If I make a SVCD in VV3 I set things for SVCD (PAL), & go to custom settings where I can set things like CBR or VBR etc. So far I haven't been able to do this in VV4 am I just missings some setting or other?


I have a question about using the Picture in Picture effect with track motion. I was wondering if there is a way to apply to the the overlay some sort of graduated opacity filter effect? By this I mean having a portion of the top image fade away to nothing in perhaps several differant directions. I have done this with still photo's & basiclly you end up with the appearance of just small portion of the top image showing through, like maybe just a face.

Everytime you use the undo the last command is added to the redue list. I don't suppost that there is any way to just delete one redo item from the list & reapply the rest of the previously redo list is there? I can see that sometimes this would be impossible to achieve since some things on the list would have an accumilative effect.

There should be a cancel button in the lower-left corner.

I can't check just now, running mobile at the moment.

Vignetting can be easily accomplished using the cookie-cutter or masking.

Yep... rewriting history changes a lot.
