Vegas Video Q: way to move around/place an image within an event?

Does anyone know if it's possible to move an image around in an event
window? I created a simple PNG of a box that has the background
transparent. If I can just move that box around to position it on top
of any video, that would mean that I never need to create another
image again. As it stands now, in order to put a box around something
on the video screen, I have to create a custom box per each video clip
since I haven't figured out how to move the box within Vegas Video
itself to position it.

Any help re this appreciated. Thx.

I finally found the answer.

Moving components around the video editor is done via the EVENT
PAN/CROP tool which can found found right on the time line over the
image itself. It's a little image of a box that you just click on and
it opens the pan/crop tool and then you can just slide things around
until it lines up. Neat that you don't have to exit to see the
results, I was able to preview the result even as I moved the image
with the box with a transparency around over the main video until the
box was in the right position.
