How can I pan across an photo file such as .jpg or .png?
On a video file, I can do this in Power Tools, Video Crop.
But with a still image, even though it has a duration on the timeline, I can't find a way to define a 16:9 box within it and pan the box across the original image as the time progresses on the timeline.

magic motion is the quick and dirty way- and always works for me -
the longer way is keyframes Chris Tayler

Double-click the clip on the timeline, to open the MODIFY tool. Click the MOTION tab. Set keyframes for the motion path.

An example: With the throbber at the far left, drag the image out of frame to the left.

Click the diamond icon in the MOTION field which will set start and end keyframes.

Then move the throbber to the end of the clip and drag the image out of frame to the right.
