Sorry for any confusion!

I'll try better . . .

IF you can see the lower Pan/Crop Keyframe Timeline, there are 2 Timeline tracks"

Track 1 - "Position" Track - this is for placing keyframe "diamonds" for changing the position of Pan/Cropping over time.

Track 2 - "Mask" track - Just to the left of this is, by default, an EMPTY unchecked white square box. IF you want "see" your Bezier mask then check it. If you don't want to see the MASK, then uncheck it. Checked=MASK-Visible. Unchecked=MASK-Invisble

Now, if you ALSO want to Synch your Pan/Crop Timeline Cursor to the Mainline Editing Timeline then engage the SYNC Cursor Icon - little Cursor Icon & padlock.

So:

Synch Cursor Padlock ON synchronises the MAIN Timeline Cursor WITH the PAN/CROP Timeline Cursor. OFF and they aren't!

MASK White Box "Enable" - ENABLED (checked) - Mask visible.

MASK White Box "Enable" - DISABLED (unchecked) - Mask invisible.



Oh yeah .. The Bezier Function is truly, TRULY a great creative option and extends anybody's opportunites further than the restricive, but essential Pan/Crop.

I can:

A] - Create Multiple sections within the SAME Frame!

B] - Make separate parts of these multiple Masks move indepentantly of each other.

C] - I HAVEcreated Circles too!!

D] - Using underlying tracks with OTHER Events also with their own MASKs I have had multiple frames appearing and dissapearing.

IMO, the introduiction of Bezier Masking (I think first in Vegas5) announced Vegas even MORE of a major creative tool for editors, graphic artists and "ideas" and content creators.

The Possibilities? The possibilites are endless! !! !
