You can adjust each quadrant’s size by dragging its borders, or adjust the size of all four
quadrants at once by dragging the point where they intersect. You can “close” a quadrant
by dragging its inside edge to the DVD Studio Pro interface edge.

Resizing the Quadrants

You can resize the quadrants in pairs, either horizontally or vertically, or resize them all
at once. When all four quadrants are displayed, making individual horizontal or vertical
adjustments affects all four quadrants. For example, dragging the horizontal boundary
up causes both lower quadrants to get bigger, while both upper quadrants get smaller.

The pointer changes its shape when it is at a quadrant boundary, indicating that you can
drag it from there.

You can also quickly make the current quadrant expand to full window.

To make the current quadrant full window
Do one of the following:

µ

Choose Window > Expand [tab name]. The currently active tab’s name is shown, and its
quadrant is the one that becomes full window.

µ

Press Shift-Space bar.

µ

Press Command-Option-Grave Accent (`, on the same key as the tilde).

In all cases, you can use these same methods to restore the quadrant to its normal size.

Note: If you perform a function that requires a different tab to appear, the quadrant is
automatically restored to its normal size.

To resize the quadrants manually
Do one of the following:

µ

To change only the heights of the upper and lower quadrants, drag the boundary between
the upper and lower halves up or down.
