Pan and Zoom

Post by daveysue »

I'm trying to create a slow zoom going from left to right of a picture showing detail and then going upwards finishing in a reduced crop in the top left of the frame.
I know how to use the pan and zoom but the problem is the key framing. every time I click the red cross to direct the pan and zoom elsewhere it clicks back to a previous frame and I lose the path that I've created.
Is there a way to turn off the automatic pan and zoom path so that I can just have the path that I want?
many thanks

Hi Dave,

This is somewhat of a pain, when trying to set a keyframe. The only way that I've been able to get around this, to add the keyframe in the timeline, then using the spinbox adjust the settings, or by changing the anchor point (clicking on the squares below "anchor point". By clicking on the crosshair when they are ontop or real close to each other, VS apparently does not know that you want the last one you created, and selects the previous one.

I know Pan and Zoom applies to still images but you can also use the Cropping tool from the Video Filters on the image. This seems to work ok using the Key Frames.
