When the mouse pointer is placed in the Preview window, it changes to a cross-hairs. Drag the cross-hairs over any area of the image, and a frame appears. The point where you first clicked is anchored, but the rest of the frame is sizable and movable.

When the mouse pointer is placed within the marquee (the frame of the selected image area), it changes to a hand. You can click and drag the marquee anywhere in the Preview window. If you drag a hand while pressing the Shift key, the marquee will be limited to vertical or horizontal movement.

When the mouse pointer is placed on the edge of the marquee, it changes to an arrow allowing you to re-size the marquee. If you drag an arrow while pressing the Shift key, the marquee will be resized proportionally.

To remove or delete a marquee, double-click the preview window.
