the Motion panel.
The image resizes to fit the canvas, which is what you wanted. However, you don't
actually want to pan and zoom. You'll remove the effect.

tion from the menu. Click an empty area of the Timeline panel to close the
Motion panel.

Animating text with keyframes
Keyframes
let you control animation, effects, and other changes that occur over
time. A keyframe marks the point in time where you specify a value, such as a
position, size, or style. To create a change over time, you must have at least two
keyframes: one for the state at the beginning of the change and one for the state
at the end. Photoshop interpolates the values for the positions in between so that
the change takes effect smoothly over the specified time. You'll use keyframes to
animate a movie title (Beach Day) from left to right over the opening image.

Click the Video pop-up menu in the Video Group 1 track, and choose
New Video Group. Photoshop adds Video Group 2 to the Timeline panel.
