Adding layered PSD files to the timeline

You can add layered PSD files to the VEGAS Pro timeline, with each layer of the file being an event on its own track.

These events are just like other events in VEGAS Pro software. For example, you could use track motion to move layers individually, use parent tracks to group and move layers together, apply track effects to animate just one layer of the graphic, or you could replace a layer with a video.

1. Select a layered PSD file in the Explorer or Project Media window.

2. Right-click and drag the file to the timeline.

3. When you release the mouse button, a shortcut menu is displayed. Choose Add Across Tracks to import the PSD layers across tracks in the timeline.

   The PSD layers, including the composite layer, are now available as streams. You can change an event’s stream by right-clicking an event, choosing Stream from the shortcut menu, and then choosing the stream you want to use for the event.
