Add Pan/Crop to Multiple Non-adjacent Events at DVinfo.net

Hi there,
I want to add a mask from Pan / Crop to multiple non-adjacent events. I have tried by going the 'Paste Event Attributes' route but this doesnt work. How can I do this? Thanks.

Hi
I don't seem to have any replies to this problem, so maybe I didn't explain clearly what Im trying to do.
Basically Im working with a multicam project. One camera 16:9 and the other 4:3. I cropped the 4:3 cam to 16:9, but when you create a muticam track it seems to take off the mask. If you then go ahead and edit your shots it then seems impossible to 'paste event attributes' to enable a crop of all events. ANy ideas????

You may be able to do this - though I'm not sure:

Once you have made all your cameras selections/cuts, select all the 4:3 takes/events and apply your pan pan/crop to them. I just tried selecting a number of such events on a multicam track and the pan/crop window came up - though I didn't go any further with it...

You would need to 'ignore event grouping' to make your selections.

Try applying the Pan/Crop to a Nested version of the clips. Could be an easy route?

Grazie
