Changing the Magnification Factor

Home Page (Graphics Editor) |  Overview |  How Do I ... Topics

By default, the Graphics editor displays the view in the left pane at actual size and the view in the right pane at 6 times actual size. The magnification factor is the ratio between the actual size of the image and the displayed size. The default is 6, and the range is from 1 to 8.

To change the magnification factor

1. Select the Image-editor pane whose magnification factor you want to change.
   
   
2. On the toolbar, click the Magnify tool. The pointer changes to the Magnify tool, and magnification-factor options appear in the option selector on the Graphics toolbar. If the current magnification factor matches an option, that option is highlighted.
   
   
3. Click the desired magnification factor.
