Zooming or Panning a View

There are additional functions available in the workspace, including hotkeys and zooming and panning a view.

Pen, Mouse, Keyboard

You can interact with the user interface using a pen and graphics tablet or a mouse, in concert with the keyboard. If you have a mouse wheel, you can use it to scroll through menus.

Note: To generate a right-click with a pen, press the context menu key in concert with the pen. If a keyboard includes a context menu key, it is typically located three keys to the right of the Spacebar.

Toxik Hotkeys

You can perform many operations using hotkeys--see Appendix A, Hotkeys for a complete list.

Zooming or Panning a View

You can zoom or pan in any Player, Schematic, or Curve Editor view.

• Do one of the following:

  • In the view, press the Up Arrow to zoom in or Down Arrow to zoom out.

  • Press Ctrl + Spacebar and drag right to zoom in or left to zoom out. When zooming, the zoom will occur centered from the origin of the mouse cursor on drag.

  • Press Home to reset the zoom factor to 1. Pressing Home again will set zoom to previous zoom factor. This is not available in all viewers.

• In the view, press Spacebar and drag.

• Press Ctrl + Tab.

Things to Remember

• When you zoom out a Player view, the resolution is automatically adjusted to the optimal one for that zoom level. This reduces the load on the computer.
