I need help! I use Windows 10. In the NEW Vegas Pro 17, the Legacy Text is gone!! This is such a basic thing and I have used Legacy Text for YEARS with ALL of my projects. I don't see it anywhere. When using "Insert Text Media" on a video track, the "VEGAS Titles & Text" come up which is the animation text which I do not want. Then I always clicked onto the f+ green icon in the upper right-hand corner and it then goes to the plugins you want to you. Legacy Text was ALWAYS there and then you simply ADD it and select OK. Then you have Legacy Text for you to use with all the proper menu tabs for Legacy Text. However, Legacy Text is no where to be found! How do I get it back? Please help!

Dear set! Oh my goodness!! I cannot thank you enough for responding AND so expeditiously!! I wonder WHY Vegas did it this way? It's always been there by default. I actually had never noticed this "Deprecated features" tab before. OH, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! (((HUGS!!)))

Not "Depracted" as Vegas Pro 17 online Help would have it. "Search" there does not find "Deprecated".

vkmast - Hi there. "Deprecated" may not be in the Vegas Pro 17 online help, but "Deprecated Features" is, indeed, listed as set said, in the: OPTIONS>PREFERENCES>DEPRECATED FEATURES" tab. It has a list of things to checkmark and Legacy Text is one of them. Now, it shows up! Great help and people here! Thx again!!

I also saw the "quicktime plugin" as an available deprecated feature. I needed to check that in order to read a few old quicktime files. So far, I'm quite impressed with V17.

@Debbie-Whitmer I do know it is there. I just pointed out that online Help does not find it if you "Search" Deprecated.
