Pan

Pan across the Diagram View in the following ways:

•	Use ( ! ), ( " ), ( # ), ( $ ), ( Page Up ), ( Page Down ), ( Home ) and ( End ) when the Diagram View is selected

•	Use the scrollbars

•	Use the middle mouse button

•	Use the Pan & Zoom window

Zoom

You can zoom into and out from a diagram using the zoom buttons on the diagram toolbar, or by using the Diagram | Zoom submenu.

Change the zoom level by 10% by clicking on either the Zoom In (+) or Zoom Out (-) buttons.

Alternatively, select the Zoom In or Zoom Out options from the Diagram | Zoom submenu.

There are three ways to return the diagram to 100%:

•	Click on the button

•	Select Zoom to 100% from the Diagram \| Zoom submenu

•	( Ctrl ) + middle-click the mouse

Notes

•	You can zoom in and out of the main window dynamically by holding ( Ctrl ) and rolling the mouse wheel

•	Changes in diagram magnification through the zoom options can be saved as permanent changes to the diagram

•	At high levels of zoom, element features cease to display. This is because of the difficulty the Windows font mapper has in choosing a font for extreme conditions, and the result can look odd
