i want to move keyframes of pan & crop or any other event fx.
how can i do that with script?
How can i move keyframes via scripts.

Hi,
There is some discussion about that here:
https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/insert-track-motion-points-at-exact-time-separation--144126/
If you read through it you will find links to Ed's tutorials and also a ton of code that I recently wrote.
If the finished code would be any use to you, please let me know.
It depends on what exactly what you want to do. How you want to move them etc. If it is just positioning, this is pretty easy.

@iEmby Make sure you do look through some of my older tutorials. For Pan/Crop, it's really fairly easy:
foreach(Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
{
if (myTrack.IsVideo())
{
foreach(VideoEvent vevnt in myTrack.Events)
{
if (vevnt.Selected)
{
//Pan/Crop
if (vevnt.VideoMotion.Keyframes.Count > 1)
{
VideoMotionKeyframe kf = vevnt.VideoMotion.Keyframes[vevnt.VideoMotion.Keyframes.Count - 1];
kf.Position = vevnt.Length;
}
So it just checks to see how many Pan/Crop keyframes there are and if more than one, it will load the last one and move it to the "length" of the event. You might need to do more error checking as, theoretically, there could be keyframes after the length of the event and this is just picking up the "last" one. But I think this will work for you in most cases.
Effects... that's a different story. First of all, you can only do this with OFX effects so that's the first check. Then you have to go through every parameter and determine if it's been automated. If it HAS been automated, how many keyframes does it have? If more than one, then pick the last one and move it to the "length" of the event. However, every parameter type has it's own type of keyframes!
So to specifically look at every parameter of every OFX effect of the video event and move the last keyframe to the event length no matter what type of parameter it is...
//effects
foreach(Effect eff in vevnt.Effects)
{
if (eff.IsOFX)
{
OFXEffect ofx = eff.OFXEffect;
foreach (OFXParameter ofxparm in ofx.Parameters)
{
if ((ofxparm.Name != "Presets") && (ofxparm.Label != "Preset") && (ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString() != "Page") && (ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString() != "Group") && (ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString() != "PushButton"))

sir but for effects i think i am doing something wrong
look at my code's starting rest of all is all yours.
it is not giving any error
but also not moving last key
i tested it on Black & While Effect

also for this if u can sir
i create a script for copy image seqence to current project location in PNG seqence folder.
also link it with them.

@iEmby, I know it works - I've already created a tutorial from it working. I tested using the "crop" effect but it should also work fine with the "Black and White" effect.
Why don't you switch to Visual Studio (instead of Visual Studio Code) as it will provide you more features such as code completion!
Based on what I'm seeing of your code, you're never getting the "selected video events". I don't see you going through the list of tracks and the list of events on those tracks to find the "selected events". You're creating a "SelectedVideoEvents" list but you're not populating that list so it has nothing to go through. In short, it's working properly - it just has nothing to work on.
You would need to change the top of "SetLastKey" to something like this:
List<VideoEvent> SelectedVideoEvents = new List<VideoEvent>;
foreach (Track myTrack in vegas.Project.Tracks)
{
if (myTrack.IsVideo())
{
foreach (VideoEvent vevnt in myTrack.Events)
{
if (vevnt.Selected)
{
SelectedVideoEvents.Add(vevnt);
}
}
}
}
Or you need to put the above in "GetSelectedVideoEvents" but then you would actually need to call that routine from "SetLastKey" which you are not currently doing.

@iEmby, I've not really done much with image sequences. Is that code currently copying all of the files? What is it that you're wanting it to do that it's not doing?
Sir i just want to copy imageseqence if any exist in my media pool in a folder named PNG Sequence which should be located at my current project folder.
and my project's mediapool imagesequence should also get connected to this copied imageseqence for future use.

I did Excalibur differently:
Basically, you need to create a menu system instead of a bunch of buttons. Each button would be a menu header and then each option inside the button would need to become a sub-menu instead of another button.
