Abstract
In one embodiment, video content is rendered within a windowpane displayed upon graphical user interface (GUI), a curser is positioned within the GUI responsive to user input, and a graphical resizing overlay is superimposed over the windowpane to facilitate arbitrary resizing of the windowpane and corresponding video content by the user when the cursor is positioned over the windowpane. In another aspect of the invention, an application window including at least a first windowpane and a second windowpane is displayed within a GUI, video content having a first display size is rendered within the first windowpane, the first windowpane and the corresponding video content is resized by a first amount resulting in a second display size, and the second windowpane is dynamically resized by a second amount proportional to the first amount such that the video content remains unobstructed by the first and second windowpanes and the application window.
