So i have one main video clip on me sequence. After that i put a text layer or a picture on the top of this clip. I need to be able to resize or move this text/picture just by double-clicking on it on the preview screen. But the problem is that sometimes it work but sometimes it does not. I am clicking on it and it does not pick it up and does not give me any options to resize or move it. But sometimes it works, i don't understand why is it happening?

    Correct answer Ann Bens

    Resize Program Monitor manually

    and / or

    FAQ: How to reset (trash) preferences.

    Also make sure you display setting in windows (OS) is set to either 100 or 150%.

    If it does not work:

    Highlight the word Motion in the Effect Controls.
