Still Image from Timeline as PSD?

[Paul Coleman]

Hello Vegas-ites

Just wondering what the workflow would be in Vegas for this:

In FCP, I export a still frame from the timeline as a PSD. Then work on it in Photoshop, and export from Photoshop as a non-optimized JPEG -- and back to the timeline.

Is this the equivalent workflow in Vegas?

You can't export as PSD. Export as PNG.

Hmm, and will there be any quality loss vs PSD? And can you export the PNG as "Millions of Colors +"? Thanks.

Thanks img. What does the dropdown say when you export? Can you choose "Millions of Colors +"? Tks:beer:

No you cannot select "millions of colors", however, on doing a properties of the file, it seems to export with 32 bit depth by default.
