Hello friends,
I am having trouble positioning a PNG image watermark. I would like to position it as a small size watermark on the bottom right of the video, but on the Video Event FX, I can only have it around the middle of the video, as it will only disappear if I take down enough (becomes outside the "F" box). I hope there is solution to this, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Put your PNG on track above video. Click event pan/crop, Drag F box to make it quite a lot bigger (image gets smaller in preview) and reposition inside the F box how you like.
PS Don't start clicking the stretch, maintain aspect ratio, etc buttons unless yo uare confident you know what you are doing. :)
Would this help?
Thank you very much, this helped me get the logo down to where I want it, only problem I'm left with now is, I can't make the image small enough (after selecting "Match Output Aspect"), I cannot stretch the F box enough to make the PNG logo image as small as I want.
Edit: If I change the Width/Height numbers to make the image smaller, it will automatically start going back to the middle again
The method that is likely to be the least work over your career is to position the .png in a 16x9 frame in photoshop or your favorite image editor. Then, the next 1835 times you insert it into your Vegas project it will be in the right place without any further manipulation.

Thank for your experienced input, I will give that a try now :)
put it on a seperate track & use "track motion." Pan/crop is for panning & cropping events, track motion is for moving tracks around.
When using a screenshot to make your stuff (which I also recomend, and do, when I don't need something to be any higher res), the "save screenshot" button above the preview window uses the preview window settings in saving the image so make sure it's on best/full.
To future proof your work, use a 3840x2160 project in your image editor. Make sure the background is transparent, then save as .PNG. Here is an example that I did.
Right-Click and Save As to use the image in a project.

Don't size your graphic such that you make your viewer have to stare at something like this for hours on end:
The size of this one is almost tolerable:
Then, there is everything in between:

Thanks a lot, the whole thing about creating a transparent background with the watermark on the bottom right in photoshop is what sealed the deal. And I agree with you, so I'm definitely not one to abuse a watermark. Thank you once again, cheers!
