HowTo: Visually edit an audio clip's wave size & volume

Greetings
 
I saw a sonar video on audio track normalization workflow where the engineer ...
1. Inspected the lead vocal track for differences in volume.
2. Then split up the entire lead vocal track into separate audio clips according to his visual inspection.
3. Then he (somehow) adjusted several clip's wave size (and thereby volume) so that all they were all roughly the same (i think by somehow dragging "something" on the clip which visually show the wave size increasing).
4. Once he did that, he did some more processing...
 
I'm wondering how step three (3) was done. Cant find the video (somewhere on YouTube).
Any help with this?
 
Please advise.

    This might help: https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR%20X2&language=4&help=EditingAudio.13.html 

    It doesn't change the clip gain but the height of the waveform.

    Yeah checked that out, but I dont think that was what he did.
    So maybe there's no way to do this in sonar. 
    I thought it was a Sonar video, though.
     
    Will keep looking.
