How to align overlay tracks

[Auser]

If I place a video in the overlay track, it doesn't retain its normal size, but is resized to small window in the middle. This makes it very hard to align components with the video track. Is there some way to disable this resizing of the overlay track video and just have it retain its normal size? (The same size as the video track video)

If you right click on that small image on the preview screen, you will have a variety of choices relating to the size it displays in. The one you are after is 'Fit to Screen'. Or else you can drag on the yellow drag handles around the image to the size you desire. (If you hold Shift down while dragging, it all increases in all directions at once, maintaining aspect ratio.)

And, in Preferences, you can choose the default to be full screen or the reduced size.
