I use Vegas 3 and want to try and do soomething...I played and played but not able to get the look I want...I want to be able to have a "Video Wall" look...say 6 panels all showing different video or images...then change to all showing one a part of one image/video stream...

Any tips and or ideas?

Use 6 video tracks and use the "track motion" function to size and position the 6 tracks as desired. Make the one that you want to show on it's own the upper most track.

Then....when you want to show six different panels showing the same video - switch to a "graphic" of a six panel transparent square layed on top of just one vid stream as large as the other six combined.

It give the same look as six monitors shoing parts of the same vid.

Know what I mean?

Ok...so use track motion to make the individual boxes...then when i want to make it all one image...use a full image but lay a grid over the to...ok...tried that and it looks great thanks!
