Hi Paul,

Before moving or resizing the capture rectangle, it needs to be unlocked. Click the padlock icon.

To move it, hover the mouse over the edge, in between the sizing handles. The Move mouse cursor should appear. Confusingly, it appears even when locked:

Maybe my laptop is too old. Running Windows 7, 32 bit.
Should be fine. Maybe slow, but working. Can you email me the .xplain file where you applied a highlight effect that doesn't show? Email: alexander.halser (at) ec-software.com
