Using Cast Thumbnail view

As the name suggests, the Cast Thumbnail view shows a very small (thumbnail) version of the cast member along with an icon that represents the cast member media type:

Icon | Cast member type | Icon | Cast member type
--- | --- | --- | ---
| Animated GIF |  | Behavior
| Bitmap |  | Button
| Check box |  | Custom Cursor
| Digital video |  | Field
| Film loop |  | Font
| Flash movie |  | Linked bitmap (all linked cast member icons are changed in the same way)
| OLE |  | Palette
| PICT |  | QuickTime video
| Radio button |  | Script
| Shape |  | Shockwave Audio
| Sound |  | Text
| Transition |  | Vector shape
| Xtra |  |

To turn off or on the display of cast member icons in Thumbnail view and change the Cast window display:

Choose File > Preferences > Cast; see Setting Cast window preferences.
