I can't make JM's script function. I Copied and pasted into Notepad and saved as KillRegion.js - yes? Is that correct?

Grazie

I'm not sure what John's script is trying to do but this will collapse the loop region thus turning it off in Vegas Pro 8.0 (which I know you are using). This will not work in Vegas 7 and below because it uses the new Vegas Pro 8.0 Transport class.

Here is the code:



/**

 *     Program: ZeroLoopRegion.cs

 * Description: This script will remove the loop region and selection in Vegas Pro 8.0

 *      Author: John Rofrano

 * 

 * Revision Date: May. 19, 2008

 **/



using System;

using Sony.Vegas;



class EntryPoint

{

    public void FromVegas(Vegas vegas)

    {

        vegas.Transport.LoopRegionLength = Timecode.FromNanos(0);

        vegas.Transport.SelectionLength = Timecode.FromNanos(0);

    }

}

Just cut and paste it into ZeroLoopRegion.cs (not .js !) This would be great to place as an icon on the toolbar. I know I would use it a lot and I'm not sure why I didn't think of it a lot sooner. The loop region drives me nuts too when I don't need it.

I tried the code block in v8, did't work.

I get error occurred during execution of the script ...... zeroloopregion.cs
error 0x8000020(message missing)

I copy the code into a file and saved it has a text file ZeroLoopRegion.cs

It shows up as a cs file type in my script folder under v8.

Did I do this wrong or am I missing something in regards to adding this to some other file.

Also, is there a way to make a keyboard short cut to run either the script menu or a specific script?

Thanks in advance.....

Just went and read the link listed in first post.

I found what I needed in turning off the loop for playing by toggling it on and off using the Q key.

That works for what I want as many times I create a loop region inadvertently. I don't care if it's there, I just want to be able to play through it many time.

What is the intent of the zeroloopregion.cs.?

Disable loop region or erase current loop region?

It erases the current loop region.

Works perfectly for me. I added code to move it to the start of the timeline. I'm a beginner in all of this...
