Navigating the View

The ViewPlan toolbar has a range of different viewing navigation functions. However, the mouse and mouse – keyboard combination also have some very useful navigation capabilities. The following summarize the two main navigation features not on the toolbar.

Zooming: The user may zoom to any region of the view simply by RMC, holding down and dragging the mouse. When the user releases the mouse button the screen will be zoomed, centered on the area selected.

Panning: The user may pan in any direction by holding the Shift key down and RMC, holding down and dragging the mouse in the direction and distance desired.
The other zooming and panning functions provided on the toolbar are also available. At times the zoom extents button is grayed out due to the view already being zoomed to full.
