Timeline Tools for VegasPro a great utility

When I started using Atari graphics computers for building graphics many many years ago, I learned that sometimes the simplest of utility software add-ons could do major work. I think that is truly the case evident with the latest version of Timeline Tools for VegasPro.
If you have not checked out this utility, I encourage everyone using
VegasPro to give it a try. It has just been updated again with even more useful features.

I've just made Beta version 1.0.39 of my Vegas Timeline Tools available for download.

Most notable in this release is a new Event Properties Editor. This allows you to select one or multiple Events where you can edit any of the specific properties exposed in the editor. Any change made in the Editor is immediately applied to all selected Events. This gives you the ability to make changes to multiple events at once, while only modifying a specific single property. This is a great advantage over the typical Copy / Paste approach to modifying multiple events that copies ALL of an events settings.

Thanks John. I created the program because there were times when I found certain Vegas editing tasks to be tiresome or awkward. The addition of the new Property Editor solves one of those awkward tasks; setting a single property in multiple Events.

The decision to expose the 19 specific Properties shown in the Property Editor were based on my personal experiences using Vegas. I found these to be the most common Properties I would like to change in multiple Events at once. I'm open to suggestions for adding new ones if there is a need.

Gary ...

PS. The image shows 19 properties when editing a Video Event. Audio Events only display 8 properties in the Editor.
