Customizing the Browser Display
There are various ways you can display items in the Browser, depending on your needs
and work style. You can display items in list or icon (thumbnail) view, choose columns
you want to show or hide, and choose the frame you see for a clip in icon (thumbnail)
view.
Choosing Views in the Browser
You can view items in the Browser in list view or icon view. List view provides detailed
clip information in columns; clips within bins appear hierarchically, allowing you to reveal
or hide the contents of a bin.
List view (default)
If you want to organize your clips visually, you can set the Browser to display your clips
as icons. There are three icon view sizes—small, medium, and large. When you choose
an icon view, items are rearranged in a grid. The large icon view is particularly useful
when using larger (20-inch or greater viewable area) monitors.

µ
Control-click in the Name column (or any place in the tab other than an icon), then choose
