Black Dot on Pan/Crop Icon Not Active -- Vegas 20

I'm using Vegas 20 on a PC.

I have two images on different tracks that are the same size. The image on the lower track will pan/crop as expected, strarting in the center of the video frame and panning to the left out of view.

The image on the upper track will not pan out of frame as the lower image. I've noticed that the image on the top (the one that won't respond as expected) has the Pan/Crop Icon in the lower right that is gray, while the same icon on the bottom (the one that pans and crops as expected) is black. I'm guessing that this difference is the key to why I can't get the upper image to behave as the lower.

I have compared all the pan/crop settings of the lower image to the upper image and can't find a prompt that makes a difference. What is making the difference?

Thank you.

@Sam-Stalos That dot changes colour to grey when the Pan/Crop settings have been changed.

Why 'the upper track will not pan out of frame as the lower image' is the main question, you'd have to look in the Pan/Crop window, share a screen capture of both images Pan/Crop windows.
