To fit your entire project within the Timeline window, Double-Click the Horizontal and Vertical Scroll Bars.

If you prefer to work with the timeline at the top on the main window in Sony Vegas, go to Options > Preferences. In the Display tab, un-check “Display timeline at bottom of main window”.

Sony Vegas: Revert to Default Window Layout

Ever accidentally close out of a vital window you need to edit with in Sony Vegas? I get asked frequently how to get certain windows back such as the Preview Window or Project Media Window. To Revert back to the Default Window Layout, Go to View > Window Layouts > Default Layout (Alt+D, D). Everything should now be back to normal.
