This screen resembles the regular QuickCheck graphics screen with the
exception that it includes a window and different softkeys. Use the
window to define a new size and location for the tool path graphic display.

The area within the window will become your next screen. The crossed
lines (+) become the center of the screen. You must move the window to
the location that you want to zoom in on to make sure that it appears on
your next screen. It is helpful to run the program first so that you can see
the tool path. This helps you position the tool path within the window.

If you decide not to change the window size or location, press the {ZOOM
ABORT} softkey to abort the operation and return to the graphics screen.

Important: Any time you change the window size and/or location, the
control erases all tool paths from the screen. These tool paths cannot be
recovered. When returning to the graphics screen using a new window, the
graphics plot starts from the current tool position.
