Thanks Grazie, that did the job! I am a recent convert from Premiere Pro, so still finding my way around!

Interesting that the option is available at track-level rather than event-level - I guess that threw me (easily done)!

If at Event Level we also use Pan/crop. Look at the right hand edge of the Event and click on the Even Pan/Crop Icon. You WILL get an option to INCREASE the FRAME size thus REDUCING the size of the FRAME, and from here you can move the STILL around relative to the FRAME. Try that out.

Welcome to Vegas! I believe that what ever happens here . . . STAYS here!!!

Grazie

Mark, what you want to do is essentially zooming out from the image. So, in the Pan/Crop window, you drag the handles of F box (the dotted-lined box with the F in it) out instead of in. Then move the box around to position its borders around your event's image as needed.

For example, if you want the image in the lower right, then increase the size of the box and drag the box up and to the left. If you think of the F box as a window into your event, it makes perfect sense. ;-)

Grazie, Rob

Have experimented, and thanks to your clear guidance I think I have got it now. Turns out, I needed to use a combination of:

1: cropping and zooming in to get the desired portion of the still image (next time I'll do this in an image editor before import!), then
2: use the Track Motion settings to shift the event to the desired location on the screen. I added the event to its own video track as this seemed easier than key framing the main video track.

Thanks both, for the prompt advice. You helped me get the result I was after, much appreciated.
