Credit Roll with Vegas Video: How to add text?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

I've run into a problem trying to create a credit roll with Vegas 5.
I am doing scrolling credits and have typed in a bunch of credits.
However, I forgot a credit early in the roll. Is there any way of
inserting additional fields? Right now, I only know how to insert an
item at the very end of the credit roll. Also, is there a way to move
credits to change their order without having to type the entire thing
over? Thanks.

First of all, do your text for your credits in Notepad. Making changes is a
LOT easier this way. When you're ready to create your credit roll, copy all
the text in your Notepad file, click once only on any line in the Vegas
credit roll box and do a CTRL-V (paste). A right-click/paste will not work
here.

Inserting extra lines is as easy as selecting the line <B>below</B> the line
where you want to insert new text and hitting the <B>Insert</B> key. Each
hit is a new line.

As far as changing credit order, you could try do a copy/paste on each line
you want to change but this is rather tedious. Much faster to redo it using
the Notepad file you created above.
