any way i can use some compositing effects without affecting the entire track?

there has to be a way. vegas 4 didn't have it. when i have a track and for examplei overlay the next track using the overlay option on the button. it affects the entire length.

Vegas 4's compositing options work the same way, it's just that Vegas 4 created an auto mask mode, and didn't have nestable parenting.

Open any Vegas 4 project in Vegas 5, you'll quickly see it's the same thing.

You can use Mask Generators in V4, or create masks with the Secondary Color Corrector, or difference modes, or Chromakey...but effectively, they work the same. There is also the Compositing envelope in all versions of Vegas, 2, 3,4, & 5, and the individual event opacities too.
