I"ve said it before and I'll say it again (because it's really starting to tick me off!)!!!

VEGAS NEEDS TO LET YOU RENAME GENERATED MEDIA CLIPS!

I've got over 150 generated media clips in my project AND I CAN'T RENAME ONE SINGLE ONE OF THEM!!!

GRRRRRRRRR!....WHY NO RENAME??!!...JUST PLAIN STUPID!!

So Sonic Foun......So Sony!! You're telling me that I have to squint and look at each one of my individual 150 thumbnails of generated media text, or open each one of them in the trimmer/monitor to find the one I want to use.

YEAH RIGHT!! THAT'S ABOUT AS EASY AS CONVINCING THE STUDIO HEAD TO DO A REMAKE OF ISHTAR!!!

Simply put there is no other possible way to do it ...AND THE TRULY SUCKS!!

Not having this feature alone may drive me away!! PUT IT IN THERE SONY!!! ALONG WITH ALL OF MY OTHER NEEDS!!!

It didn't take you long to start criticizing other posters again.

Your posting history BOBO shows you've done NOTHING but criticizing, mostly me. Pot calling kettle black. What a A-hole YOU are!
Your posting history confirms it.

I've called attention to your, and only your, inappropriate and immature behavior. You, however, have attempted to insult dozens of posters.

Zippy, you're full of crap -- it is not "a lot of extra work." The only extra step, in fact, is that you have to slide the comment field to the left. At that point, you're simply filling in the comment field instead of renaming. Please, grow up.

If you asked nicely (not your normal style), perhaps the Sony programmers would add the comment field to the generated media dialog so you can fill it in on creation.

1) The media pool's comment field can be used for "virtual renaming" of a media assett, including generated media.

One reason why this is good: If you rename a source file at the windows level, you'd break the link to that media file in any other project that it (it = the renamed media file)- not so with comment.

2) Generated media is virtual media, and as such it doesn't hog space on the hard drive. Think of it like an effect preset.
