VP20 - Bulk Enabling Keyframes

Sean-K wrote on 1/30/2024, 9:36 AM

I'm looking for insight on whether it's possible to select/enable all keys within an effect at once vs. needing to manually select all individually. I've done it manually in years past, but have always wondered if there was a more efficient method to the process (when needed).

Vegas Pro - 20.0 Build 411

w/Boris FX Continuum Plug-ins for OFX 2023 v16.0.0.848

Windows 11 PC w/ EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 12GB FTW3

@Sean-K, Secondly, upload the picture here instead of on another website.

Just save the above as "Animate All Paramaters.cs" and run the script to turn on animation for all parameters that can be animated on each OFX effect added to each selected event.
