How do I...?
Interaction How-To
- Zoom in on a view?
-
The easiest way to do this is to use the interactive zoom
commands - hold down the 'z' key while dragging the mouse up
and down (z = zoom), or hold down the 'r' key while dragging a
box or a range (r = range).
- Move a view left/right/up/down?
-
Try the interactive pan commands - hold down the 'p'
key while dragging the mouse left/right/up/down (p =
pan). Please note that some views do not offer this mode
for moving up and down. You can also try the scroll bars to adjust
the position of the image.
- Select something?
-
Left-click should select things in all views. Using
CTRL-left click (control key + left click together)
will add things to your selection. Some views (particularly tabular
views) also support Shift-left click to extend the
selection between selected items. An additional mode exists in a
couple of views (the Graphical View in particular) called
marquee selection - left-click-drag on the view
opens up a selection box to select a bunch of things together.
Selections in the ruler bars act a little differently. Holding
down CTRL while selecting extends, and
Shift subtracts. Also, selections in the ruler bar
can be aadjusted by dragging the edges along the ruler bar.
