I need a script that organizes the events like a "ladder", I would like it to have a menu so I can choose what the frame interval is between each event and what the order of the events will be, whether it is from bottom to top or top to bottom.
@m3lquixd, either method would be fairly easy to do. But there needs to be some answers:
In other words, how do we locate the events to move? Do we need to do any checking that they all start at the same point? Does it need a form to indicate top move vs bottom move? How far to move events? Anything else?
@jetdv In the example I did it with 5 frames, but I thought of a script that had a menu for the user to enter how many frames they want. And choose whether the movement would be from top to bottom or bottom to top. The idea would be to have a single script, but if that's not possible, it could be one to do from top to bottom and one to do from bottom to top. But the part about typing how many frames the user wants to move would be essential. And yes, it would only be on the events that were selected, ONLY the events that were selected. Even if there are other events on the same tracks. As for checking if they are at the same point, I don't think it's necessary... Because if, for example, I moved 5 frames apart in each one, and I wanted to move 2 MORE frames, I would just need to apply it again. (Ideally, events remain selected after script execution) However, I believe it would be more difficult to create a script that moves regardless of whether the events are aligned. So if it's not possible. It may just be when the events are aligned anyway. So as not to give you trouble. Because if they are aligned, just follow the logic I did in the example video. I don't know... I would like it to be independent of whether the events are aligned.

I think what you need is the Layer script from Vegas datamosh
@zzzzzz9125 I downloaded it here, it doesn't seem to work
I haven't even had time to begin looking at this. The other one I posted today took maybe 2 minutes. This one isn't a 2 minute script.
Oh I understand perfectly, I was worried that you left this aside. haha
@m3lquixd see if this is what you're wanting.

Is there a limit to how many events I can select?
Shouldn't be. Every event on the track will be processed the same.
Perfect, you are amazing! Thank you very much!
