Inserting Media Objects

Formatting clips

Once you insert an image clip, you may need to format it.

To resize a clip:

  • Double-click the clip.
  • The Format dialog box opens. The dialog box will display certain tabs first, depending on the type of clip you want to format. For example, if your clip is a picture, the Picture tab displays.
  • Click the Size tab.
  • Use the controls on each of the tabs to format your clip.
  • Click OK.

Format Picture dialog box - Size tab

To resize a clip using the sizing handle:

  • Click the clip to select it.
  • Hover the mouse pointer over one of the sizing handles. The pointer changes to a double-headed arrow.
  • Drag the clip's sizing handle to resize the clip.
  • When any of the four corner handles are dragged, the size of the entire image becomes smaller or larger, and the picture retains its proportions.
  • When any of the middle handles are dragged, only the height and width changes, thus changing the proportions or scale of the picture.

  • Double-click the clip.
  • The Format Picture dialog box opens.
  • Click the Layout tab.
  • Select a text wrapping style.
  • Click OK.
