Change the Pan and Zoom of Displayed Floor Plans

Depending on the task at hand, you may want to adjust the display of the floor plan, such as by zooming (changing the magnification) or panning (changing the portion of the floor plan that the program displays).

Zooming is particularly useful if you have opted to display labels but the floor plan is not displaying them because you are zoomed in too far. Zoom out of the floor plan in order to see the labels.

The drawing control toolbar on the left of the drawing frame has buttons for zooming.

To zoom the drawing

There are a several ways to adjust the zoom setting:

• Use the zoom commands on the drawing control toolbar that is located on the left side of the drawing window. The drawing control toolbar is pictured above.
• Use the mouse wheel for wide-scale zooming.
  • Turn the wheel up to zoom in
  • Turn down to zoom out.
• Click the mouse.
  • Double-click while on the drawing to zoom in at 1.25 the current scale.

To pan the drawing

• Use the Up, Down, Left, Right arrow keys.

• You can use the mouse click-move-release action to pan the drawing, except when you are in "Zoom into Selected Window Area" or "Select Multiple Assets" mode.
