Using Map Extents

The Home button allows you to zoom the map view to a previously saved Extent.

By clicking the arrow in the corner of the Home button you can access a submenu with the following options:
Home Click the Home command to zoom the current map view to the extent that was saved as the Home extent.
Load Extent Click the Load Extent command to open the Load Extent dialog, where you can choose from a list of previously saved extents.

The Load Extent dialog lists the previously saved extents. From this dialog you can zoom to any of the saved extents, and delete any of the saved extents.

Click the green Check mark button to zoom the associated extent. Click the red trash can button to delete it.

Map extents are saved views of an area of the map at a selected zoom level that you can quickly zoom to.

One extent can be saved as the default Home extent. Others can also be saved and accessed from the Load Extent dialog.

To save a home extent, click the Save View button and select Save.

To save additional extents, click the arrow in the top left corner of the Save View button to open the submenu, then select Save Extent As.

This opens the Save Extent As dialog, allowing you to enter a name for the extent. This is a mandatory field. Enter a label and click Save.

Saved extents can be viewed in the Load Extent dialog.
