Customizing Your Window Setup

Storing and Recalling Zoom Settings

You can store three different zoom settings for each window via use of the Save as
Zoom 1–3 key commands. Use the Recall Zoom 1–3 key commands to recall your
zoomed settings. These commands only apply to the active window or window area.

Zooming in on One Section of the Screen

To enlarge a section of the screen to fill the whole window, rubber band select the
desired area with the Zoom tool.

You can do this repeatedly, if you need to zoom in further.

Tip: You can access the Zoom tool when other tools are selected by holding Control-
Option.

Reverting to the Previous Zoom Setting

Click on the window background with the Zoom tool. This will return the zoom level to
the original setting, or will backtrack through previous zoom steps if the tool was used
multiple times.

Zoom Navigation Key Commands

You can set, and recall, up to thirty zoom level and window scroll-bar positions for each
window. These allow you to navigate through a number of window zoom levels, and
scroll bar positions, making repetitive editing tasks much faster.

You can use the following commands to zoom selected events, or a region defined by
the locators, to fit the screen. The use of all zoom commands creates a new step in the
navigation path.

 Zoom to fit Selection vertically and horizontally, store Navigation Snapshot: Displays the

current selection as large as possible, and saves it in the navigation path.

 Zoom to fit Selection horizontally, store Navigation Snapshot: Displays the current

selection as large as possible horizontally, and saves it in the navigation path.

 Zoom to fit Locators, store Navigation Snapshot: Displays the current locator area as

large as possible, and saves it in the navigation path.
