Zoom Commands

drag a marquee box around a point and zoom into that point. Clicking with the
cursor zooms you in to double the previously set view level.
|
Panning

Allows you to move about the page with precision. With a work area of
250 feet. It is easy to get lost. This allows you to move the page as if you
could use your hand.

Level “405651%”

Clicking with the plus Tool zooms you in double the last view
setting, for example, if you are at 100%, you will go to 200%. Clicking with
the minus tool zooms you out to the last setting. Using the example in the
previous sentence, it would put you back to 100%
