By moving the start and end points of Slices independently, you can create overlapping

These default mouse actions are valid only if the SLICE and REMOVE buttons are disabled in
the edit tools (5). Enabling any of them provides alternative mouse controls described below.

You can also click the left or right handle of the scroll bar and drag it horizontally to zoom in/
