1.2.9.1 Zoom mode
The zoom mode permits magnification of a portion of the drawing area with the mouse. In this
mode the cursor looks like a magnifying glass.
Appearance of cursor in zoom mode (when zooming is possible and when not)
The cursor indicates whether or not it is over an area where magnification is possible (typically
not outside the drawing). To start an enlargement, left click on the drawing point where one corner of
the new viewing window is desired and, without releasing the button, move the cursor to the point the
opposite corner of that window should be.
It is interesting to see that while moving the cursor discontinuous lines indicating what will be
the new viewing window will appear if the button is released. The cursor also reports whether or not the
selected area is valid as a new viewing window by changing the appearance of the mouse cursor.
The new viewing window is invalid or is not permitted
This may be because it is too small, narrow or wide, both in window units (pixels) and variable
units, both in the X axis and the Y. For example, where the variable period is one hour magnification of
an area of the drawing of less than an hour on the X axis is not permitted.
