Oh, thanks, its really works:) But i have one more trouble in Media Generators-->text. I can't make white text on the movie background.Always black background...:(

Either choose a template with a transparent (chequerboard) background, or with your black background event, click the Properties tab, and slide the triangle under "Background Colour" to the bottom of that column, which will make it transparent.

Need to choose Soft Shadow?

No NEED to choose soft shadow - Shadow and Outline are additional options available with text, so depending on colours of text and background you can use them or not use them.

Either choose a template with a transparent (chequerboard) background, or with your black background event, click the Properties tab, and slide the triangle under "Background Colour" to the bottom of that column, which will make it transparent

It doesn't work....

Which one doesn't work? - they both do here.

Did you try starting with a Text Preset with a grey chequerboard background - this means the background is already transparent, and if this is placed on a track above a video track, then the Title will be superimposed over the video.

The only difference between this Event and one with a black background is the triangle next to the column under "Background Colour" in the "Properties" tab which I mentioned before being dragged up or down. Up = Opacity increases towards solid, Down = Opacity reduces towards transparent.

"placed on a track above a video track"
Heh, and I placed all time on video...now it work, Thanks man!
If you can, help me in Overlays please.How to use it?
P.S.
I only yesterday have received Vegas 5 and from that day I have started to work with it, therefore still the Newb...

I'd love to help, but I don't understand what "help me in Overlays" means.

In case it helps, Vegas gives you an unlimited number of tracks, and higher tracks take precedence over lower ones - a bit like a pile of overhead transparencies, where the higher ones overlay the lower ones.

There are much more complicated issues such as Parent and Child Tracks and Composite modes, but for now try to describe clearly what you want to achieve.

At me in Vegas only 6 basic options (Explorer, Trimmer, Media Pool, Transitions, Video FX and Media Generators) .A button Overlays is only above preliminary video window. I do not know as its effects it is possible to insert into a track.

I feel the pain . .I feel the pain . . . ! ! ! g

lurii, may I suggest that you refer to the on-line manual for V5 -- most of your questions can be answered there. Overlays are well covered .

I downloaded the manual on a cd and took it to a printer to have a hard copy made. I refer to it all the time and highlite and tab noteworthy sections .

Printing it was a suggestions from a member of this forum and it works for me! have fun learning Vegas.

As a newbie, lurii is probably wondering what some of the expressions thrown out mean.

A "overlay" track in the context used for Vegas typically means the higher track when your project only has two tracks. The main (lower) track is where you primary video goes, the track above it (the overlay) is often used to selectively mask what appears below it. Normally in a basic two track project where yo have only two tracks, anything on the top track blocks everything on the bottom track. A "overlay" track selectively masks things below it.

There is no option in Vegas to make a "overlay" track, so no tab or button to push. Its simply a regular viedo track that becomes a overlay track if you do certain things with it. A common use for a overlay track is to have text float above your video below. Under the Media Generators tab click on text then pick one of the templates and drag and drop it to the top track in a two track project. The top track now becomes an "overlay". The first template called default has a totally transparent backgound, (the checkerboad pattern) so only the text you type in the Video Media Generator appears. The other templates offer other options. You can control the size, position, color of text, etc., directly from the Media Generator work area. A slightly more advnaced use of a overlay track is for example to use a graphic program like Photoshop to mask out parts of a image. Since Vegas supports native Photoshop files you can drop and drag masked images having one image float over another or save to a file format that supports the alpha channel and do it that way.
