I just finished reading Vol 1 Num 1 of the newsletter. An introduction to scripting: Fade in/Fade out. Where do I type in all those texts?

Thanks,

What newsletter, what text?

Norris, you just type them into NOTEPAD and then save them with a .js extension for JScript scripts and a .cs extension for C# scripts. The vast majority of the scripts in the newsletters are .js scripts. Also note that Vegas 4 used the "Using SonicFoundry.Vegas" while Vegas 5 and newer use "Using Sony.Vegas" so that one line will need to be changed.

George, the newsletters can be found on my website (http://www.jetdv.com). There are currently over 30 of them.

What do I do after I save the script? I mean, how do I integrate the script into Vegas? This must be very elementary, but I'm a total newbie, so please bear with me.

Thanks,

Save it in the "Script Menu" folder inside the Vegas folder. Next time you start Vegas it will appear in the Tools - Scripting menu. If Vegas is already running, going to "Rescan Script Menu" will also let it appear. Once it appears in the scripting menu, you can also assign it to a keypress or add it to the toolbar for even easier access.
