Pan/Crop vs. Track Motion

Sometimes I want to start a picture or video really small and then make it come up to it's original full size (key frame it over time). I know in Premiere Pro I can do this very easily and just set the size from 0 to 100 and key frame it over time. How do I do that in Vegas? I can't seem to get the video any smaller than a certain size. It seems Vegas has a limit?

Use Track Motion to do this (it'll shrink to 0.0) as Pan/Crop has a finite limit as to how small an image can be shrunk.

think of them as very literal in their names: pan/crop is for panning & cropping. Track motion is for when you want motion to the whole track. I would LOVE both on both as they work differently.

Mike, how do you set the Track Motion to 0? I did notice that Pan/Crop has a finite limit...

The easiest way is to enter the value of 0.0 in the Postion: Height (or Width) areas.
