Synch Cursor With Text Generated Media

tnw2933 wrote on 6/13/2003, 8:28 PM

When I choose Insert Text in Vegas 4.0 and attempt to use keyfames to control the text, I notice that the Synch Cursor icon in the left bottom of the keyframe controller window is grayed out and cannot be activated. In all other keyframmable functions, e.g. postion, this button is active. Is this a bug in Vegas 4.0? Is there some other reason that Sych Cursor does not work with Text Generated Media.

Thanks in advance.

Tom

Sync Cursor does not work with any generated media.

i wonder why that is. Would be really nice. If well, can't have everything. :)

Because the same piece of generated media can be in multiple places on the timeline.

Jet,

Thanks much for the response. I feel like a dummy now that you have explained the perfectly obvious reason why sych cursor cannot be used with generated media. A bit wiser now.
