In, Vegas Pro v22, I accidentally clicked on "Video Effect FX: Event Pan/Crop" and on something on that pop-up - now the video is shifted slightly right, with a black line along the left edge. How do I get rid of this? I'm new to Vegas and I've tried everything I could think of, but I can't get rid of it. I'm able to add and delete other fx, like contrast and sharpen, but I can't get rid of the pan/crop fx. Please help.

@Al_Korzonas In the Pan/Crop window there's a dotted rectangle that represents what is shown in the Preview window.

Double click the image in the Pan/Crop window will centre the dotted rectangle.

Right click in the Pan/Crop window - Restore will make the dotted box the size of the media/video.

PS, look at the keyframe timeline at the bottom of the Pan/Crop window, it's easy to make keyframes by accident, esp if Sync Cursor is on,

If you want to return pan/crop back to its default framing, click on the little down arrow at the RH side of pan/crop's 'Preset' field and from the menu that opens select 'Default':
