Use the Advanced tab to define a section as well as set additional video parameters.
Select the image section using its position (left, top, right, bottom; all values in percent) or draw the section with
the mouse. Values indicated in percent are applied immediately when the section is drawn with the mouse. If
the values in percent are changed, the Apply button has to be clicked before the thus selected section is updated
- as with all editable text fields.
