 More specific information on which plugins need to use \textit{Proxy 1:1}. is provided here next. If the keyframe data uses coordinate data that is absolute, then the Factor scale = 1 should be used.  If the data is normalized (like always $0-100\%$) then the proxy can be done with downsize (i.e. classic \textit{Proxy}).  The session geometry format, shown in \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Format} as $width \times height$, is changed if scale factor $\neq$ 1 is used to cause all of the data to be in the reduced format.  If this affects the plugin operation, then \textit{Proxy 1:1} should be used.  Examples of plugins that need the \textit{Proxy 1:1} are: Title, AutoScale, Scale, ScaleRatio, and Translate.  Most others are safe to use with downsize.
