Zooming and Scrolling

Icon	Description
	As the model is created, the drawing scale is automatically adjusted so that the full layout appears on the screen. For large or intricate models, it may be necessary to zoom in on a particular area. This is done by issuing View Zoom Fence or by clicking on the toolbar. The zoom area is selected by clicking the mouse on one corner of the region to be zoomed in upon and, while holding down the left mouse button, dragging the cursor to the opposite corner of the desired zoom area. The mouse button is then released and the screen is redrawn with the zoom area filling the entire screen.

The mouse button is then released and the screen is redrawn with the zoom area filling the entire screen.

Scroll bars are provided allowing the user to scroll through the model while it is zoomed so that any part of the model is accessible. Scroll through the model by either clicking on one of the scroll arrows or dragging the scroll box along the scroll bar.

Selecting View Zoom Full redraws the full layout on the screen. Three additional zoom commands are provided, View - Zoom In, View - Zoom Out, and View - Previous Zoom.

Detailed directions for using these commands are located in the Tutorial manual. See the on-line help for additional explanation of the Zoom Functions.
