Building a Custom Command in VEGAS – Part 2 – Renaming Items to be Changed and Fixing the Form Error

In the previous tutorial we created the base project and added the base code. In this tutorial, we go through the named items that need to be changed, do a Find/Replace on all of these items, and fix the error message when creating the form.

The names we will be changing in the base code are:

MyCCMainNameSpace – The namespace used by our CustomCommand
MyCCMainFormName – The class name the main form
MyCCDockcontrolClass – The class name for our DockableControl
MyCCVegasInternalName – A unique internal identifyer for VEGAS to use
MyCCVegasTabName – The name VEGAS will show on the custom command tab
MyCCccmClassName – The class name for the ICustomCommandModule
MyCCccVariable – A Variable to hold the new CustomCommand used to set various settings and determine which “Extensions” it appears in
MyCCVegasMenuText – The text that will show in the Extensions menu
MyCCDockcontrolVariable – A Variable used to set the DockControl parameters

In the next tutorial, we will add some simple code so the custom command will actually perform a task and then see it run inside VEGAS.
