4.1 The Zoom Tool
The Zoom Tools
The Zoom tool is found in Tool Box, Enhancement Tools
This function magnifies an image, making details easier to see, and allows movement
around the magnified image.
An image can be displayed ¼x, ½s, 1x, 2x, 4x, or 8x larger than the original display by
clicking on the appropriate buttons. To return to the original magnification, click on the
1X button.
When an image is magnified, only part of it can be displayed on the screen at any one
time. To see different parts of the magnified image, use the green Pan Control box. The
outer box shows a thumbnail of the entire image while the inner green box represents the
portion currently displayed on the screen.
To view different regions of a magnified image, move the cursor into the inner box. Click
and hold down the left mouse button. The cursor changes to a hand; use it to drag the
green box until the desired region of the image appears on the screen.
Alternatively, use the scroll bars in the image window to move the image up/down, and
left/right.
