Sony Vegas Studio 8 Platinum Wipes

[luigi2000]

I needed a vertical split between two iso cameras. I could not get the keyframe controls to stop a wipe during the transition.

Can wipe transitions in Vegas 8 Platinum be set to hold at 50% while the action continues? Is there an esoteric way to make transitions to hold partway through? I resorted to pita motion tracking and panning to get the split.

Thank you.

I don't understand why a simple Event P & C + a quick Track Motion is so difficult for you, but that is the simplest way.

Edit : A little further digging (and this is into Vegas Pro - I don't have movie studio) shows that there are envelopes that can be applied to transitions to control transition program. Theoretically, if you have the transition set to run the duration of the clip, you coukld add an envelope to the transition and cause it to hold for that length. Look up transition progress envelopes in the help files for details.

Thank you. Next time that I need a transition hold I'll check into transition progress envelopes.
