[feature] Copy / paste specific bezier-point

The mockup above says it all...

  • Select a bezier
  • Copy all it's properties with an extended popup menu
  • (the properties are already known to Vegas, since you can query them)
  • Select a point in the timeline
  • Paste the exact same bezier point at cursor position

Would speedup processing of complex envelopes during automation :-)

I like the idea of being able to copy/paste volume-envelope break-points. But not for your reason. Sometimes points that look alike are not and if you try to drag them down in a pair to zero, they won't go all the way. A quick cut and paste would fix that. Presently I reset them both, then drag. Or to just equalize a pair: double-click on one, copy the value, double-click on the other, and paste the value. Most tedious.

Instead of inserting break-points one at a time... try four-at a time. Obviates the need for most single inserts.

Yeah, enveloppe points became rather buggy in Vegas 20, especially when "auto ripple" is turned on.

But I can select four points at a time and copy them in concussive order;

The point is (pun intended...) sometimes I want "exactly" a 100% copy of a point with all it's linked parameters (from the timeline to the plugin it triggers).
