At left, the zoom area pointer was used to drag a selection box around the
word "Chicago." When the mouse button was released, the map jumped to
a tighter, zoomed-in view of Chicago. (These figures show only the center
portion of the Master Map.) You can find the exact zoom range in miles by
checking the Zoom Range Window (see page 46 for more information).
NOTE:
The Zoom Area button can only zoom in on a map. To zoom back out,
use the Zoom Out button or the Z-Out button (see below). The Zoom
Area button also acts like the Center Map button. With the command
active, just click a spot to center it on the screen. You can also use the
Zoom Area pointer to launch pop-up editing menus by right-clicking on
waypoints and icons.
