I don't own Vegas but would like to.
OK, in the Event (not track) Video FX Window, if I want to play that particular event in order to decide where to put a particular keyframe, I can press F12 and the video plays in the preview window.
However, the cursor in the keyframe box does not move.
Therefore, I can't pause the video and insert a keyframe at the spot shown in the preview window. Instead, I have to watch the timecode, remember the timecode and move to the proper spot using the arrow keys (or Alt-Arrow keys) in order to insert a keyframe. This seems stupid to me. To me it would make sense for there to be transport controls in the keyframe area so I could have a "play -> pause -> insert keyframe" workflow. Or am I just missing something?
<Edit> I just noticed that I can sync the keyframe cursor with the timeline cursor but that requires changing focus (annoying)</Edit>
