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 fig-

ures 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 54 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.
