what do the icons in project mean?

[RomainIB]

Hi, I would like to know what the square icon on the left of a file mean pls?
Even if I click on it or not nothing change in my composition.
Is it important to have it selected or not for the export?
Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi RomainIB,

Welcome to the community.

That icon identifies that the footage has a proxy attached.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Nishu

Hi Nishu, 

Thank you, I think I understand, it's because I changed the footage to replace with an other version of the .pgn (text in the image).

I still don't know if there is an incidence if the icon is selected or not, I can't find the answer is the documentation.

Thank you anyway I'll figure it out when I'll be less novice with AE 😉
