# Resizing Source Area Proxies

Resize proxies in the Source Area individually or as a group. You can reduce the size of proxies if your Source Area contains many clips, or enlarge a selected few that you might want to compare.

To resize a Source Area proxy:

1. While holding down Alt, grab any side or corner of the proxy with the cursor and drag it. An indicator on the proxy displays its current size.

To resize a group of Source Area proxies:

1. Select the clips that you want to resize. See Selecting Clips.
2. While holding down Alt, grab a side or corner of the current source clip (green border) and drag it.

   When you let go of the resized clip, the selected clips are resized to match it. If the focus source clip is not among the clips you select, the most recent focus clip within that selection becomes the current source clip.

   TipYou can also resize Source Area proxies using one of the clip arrangement buttons. When you tile, cascade, or stack clips in the Source Area, all selected clips are resized to match the focus clip.
