  <li>Click one of the 2 corners to (subtly) select it.</li>
  <li>Shift-click-and-drag the other corner.</li>
  </ol>

Body: <p>I can create a rectangular mask in Premiere CC, and I can resize it. But how do I change just one dimension (make it more narrow) while keeping the corners at right angles? Dragging a corner point manually probably won't maintain a 90-degree corner.</p>
