Options for Viewing the Design

Your view of the design can be manipulated a number of ways to make
things easier to see while editing, as well as to see what the finished design
will look like.

Using the Full Screen

When you open Ultiboard for the first time, the program displays the
workspace with the menu and toolbars, the Birds Eye View and the
Design Toolbox. To get a better view of the workspace, you can either use
the zoom functions to magnify it, or have the workspace take up the full
screen. Refer to the

Magnifying and Shrinking the View

section for more

information about the zoom functions.
