Click the Remove  Selected Plug-In button   to remove the current plug-in from the chain.
Applying video event effects before or after event panning or cropping
To prevent unwanted blurring, you can choose whether effects  are applied to the event before or after any 
event  panning and cropping by arranging the Pan/Crop  button in the plug-in chain at the top of the Video 
Event FX window. For more information, see "Panning and Cropping Video Events" on page 275.
Here, the Deform plug-in is applied before the pan/crop and the Glow and  Color Curves plug-ins are 
applied after the pan/crop.
Applying video track effects before or after track compositing
When you add effects to a video track, you can specify whether  the effects are applied before or after 
compositing. For more information, see "Compositing and Masks" on page 385.
You can choose whether an effect is applied pre- or post-compositing  by arranging the Composite  button 
in the plug-in chain at the top of the Video FX window.
Bypassing all video effects
You can use the Split-Screen  View button   in the Video Preview window to create a split-screen preview 
that bypasses  all video effects (track effects, event effects, media effects, and video  output effects) without 
removing them from your project. For more information, see "Split-Screen Previews" on page 472.
Animating a video effect
If you want to create an animated effect, use the keyframe  controller at the bottom of the Video Event FX 
dialog to establish distinct  settings throughout the duration of the effect.
During playback, intermediate frames are interpolated to  create smooth motion. For more information, see 
"Keyframe Animation" on page 294.
Automating video output effect parameters with the bus track
You can think of Vegas Pro  as having a single video bus: when you have multiple tracks, they are  all 
composited to a single video output. For more information, see "Compositing Video" on page 385.
