Sony Vegas: Quickly Rotate Multiple Files

In Sony Vegas, you can quickly rotate multiple files in the Project Media window. Simply Select All the images needing to be rotated in the Project Media Window. Right-Click a selected file and choose either Rotate 90° Clockwise or Rotate 90° Counterclockwise from the shortcut menu. This is especially useful when portrait images are imported as landscapes and need to be rotated in the correct orientation.

When you have a full timeline in Sony Vegas, it can get hard to find certain clips.

Sony Vegas: Revert to Default Window Layout

Robert Carreno — Wed, 20 Jun 2012 14:41:03 +0000

Ever accidentally close out of a vital window you need to edit with in Sony Vegas? I get asked frequently how to get certain windows back such as the Preview Window or Project Media Window. To Revert back to the Default Window Layout, Go to View > Window Layouts > Default Layout (Alt+D, D). Everything should now be back to normal.
