Zoom tool
The Zoom tool lets you zoom in (magnify) and zoom out (reduce) your view of
the image. Only your view of the preview image is changed; the actual size of
the image remains unaffected.
Each click of the zoom tool magnifies or reduces by a factor of 2. Thus, the
magnification levels increase from 100% to 200%, to 400%, to 800%, and to
the maximum 1600%. When you reach the maximum magnification factor, the
center of the Zoom tool will appear empty.
To zoom out (reduce), hold down the Option key and with the Zoom tool
selected, click the image. A minus sign will be in the middle of the lens to
indicate the image is being zoomed out.
To use the Zoom tool:
1. Click the Zoom tool.
2. Place the pointer — now a lens with a plus sign inside it — on the image
and click. To reduce the view, hold down the Option key (the Zoom tool
changing to show a minus sign inside it), and click again.
