Is there a way to loop trimmed Events?

It sure would be nice to be able to loop a trimmed portion
of a file. When I set the loop switch and extend the event
to make it repeat, the entire file is looped, not the
trimmed portion. This makes it necessary to open the file
in SoundForge and create a new file to loop. Am I doing
something wrong? This seems like something that would be
common to do when using sample CDs where there are multiple
loops per WAV file. BTW Vegas is great, this is really just
nit-picking.

Unfortunatley you will have to save trimmed event as a separate
file using Sound Forge or Cool Edit or simmilar editor. And then
load the event and loop it

Solo the channel, double click the event (to set the marker region),
press ctrl-m to make a new file and loop the resulting file
instead... It works and is pretty quick, too...

This is a good method for quick copying. Just remember that all
of your assignable and track FX and volume changes will be applied
to the new track. You'll want to mute all FXs and set the volume
to 0dB to get as close an exact copy as possible (if that's what you
want).
