To zoom in on objects

2. On the View menu, click Zoom In, or click the Zoom In tool.

Correct mistakes

If you change your mind about something you did, you can undo the action. If you change
your mind again, you can redo the action.

You can undo and redo all the operations you performed since you last saved the display,
one operation at a time.

The operations you perform between opening and closing a dialog box are treated as a
single operation. Operations you perform in the Property Panel are treated as separate
operations.

To undo an operation

On the Edit menu, click Undo, or click the Undo tool.

To redo an operation

On the Edit menu, click Redo, or click the Redo tool.

Test your displays as you work

To test the objects in your displays as you work, use the Test Display tool to switch to test
mode. When you are finished testing, switch back to edit mode to continue editing.

If you set up local messages and graphic objects to use multiple languages, the messages
and objects are shown in the current application language during test mode.

Use the Diagnostics List when in test mode

The Diagnostics List shows messages about system activities when you test your graphic
displays. You can specify the types of messages to show in the Diagnostics List, move the
list, resize it, and clear the messages in it.

Test mode is not the same as running the display. It does not change the appearance or position
of the display as set up in the Display Settings dialog box. Alarm and information messages are
not shown, although if communications are set up, tag values are read and written. Display
navigation, data logging, parameters, and macros do not work in this mode. If you want to test
these features, test the application as described on page 14-2.
