Struggling with Vegas 7 here -
I'm not able to view things like brightness/contrast in the preview window. Spent hours trying to see what changes I was making but they refused to appear in the preview. I then drove to Borders and Barnes & Noble to find a book that might show me what I'm doing wrong - but to no avail.
Even though I was unable to see if there was a change, I suspected it was there but it wasn't visible, so I rendered what I had done already and sure enough I found that I had over-brightened the scene.
What am I doing wrong? Is there an option to view eventFX changes in the preview window that I inadvertantly shut off?

I see the icon and also see that FX bypassed is checked. But it will not let me uncheck it. What am I missing here?

Wow THAT WORKED!
I sure wish I found this group about 6 hours ago. I've spent literally hours trying to figure it out.
Thank you so much for your quick reply and help.
