Zooming in/out
There are two (2) methods that you can use to zoom in on an image:
1. The Image Editor’s Z OOM tool allows you to zoom in on a particular area on the image.
• Click the Z OOM button on the Image Editor’s toolbar.
Your pointer transforms into a magnifying glass.
• Click the part of the image that you want to zoom in on.
The Image Editor zooms in on the image in increments.
2. You can zoom in on the image using your mouse or keyboard. Note, however, that this
