Question for Roger 74

Hi Roger

First off, big thanks for all the scripts you've posted, especially those useful to us audio-only users!

I have your QuickPan and QuickEnvelope scripts installed and they're great - really speed up editing - but have noticed a problem with them. The last envelope node created, the one on the right-hand edge of an event, is always just off the event, rather than actually being on it. So, when you move the event the envelopes are broken as that last node can't be dragged along with it and remains on the timeline.

It's possible that I'm using old versions of the scripts; are you aware of this issue and have you fixed it in later versions?

Again, big thanks for all your work.

Ben

Just for the record, I wrote QuickEnvelope, not QuickPan (however, the Pan feature is a part of the last version of QuickEnvelope).

I'll try to give the script an overhaul, it hasn't been updated for a long time. I'll fix that issue and also improve the way it handles existing envelopes.

Can't give you a time frame at the moment though.

I wrote QuickPan after Roger wrote QuickEnvelope. Thanks for pointing out this bug. Apparently you must keep the envelope points within the event boundary and not on it.

If you change line 23 of QuickPan.js from this:

var selectionLength : Timecode = Vegas.SelectionLength;

To this:

var selectionLength : Timecode = Vegas.SelectionLength - new Timecode("00:00:00:01");

It will fix the problem. In the mean time I’ll repackage it and update the web sites that have it posted. Thanks,
