Pan Menu
Previous Top Next

Use the pan menu commands to pan the current view up and down or left and right by a pan factor margin defined in the View Options . The factor causes the view to pan by the factor of the view defined by the pan factor when the commands are selected - or more conveniently the Pan shortcut hotkeys are pressed.

Pan Commands Description

Pan Select - This is a special option for panning the view by selecting two points. After selecting the command select a point in the design area. The cursor should appear as a hand. After selecting the first point the view will drag with the mouse. Drop the view at a new postion. If you move out of the view the pan operation is cancelled.

The alternative to the Pan Select command is to use Pan dragging using the mouse button defined in the
View Options . The view can then be conveniently dragged at any time by simple clicking the selected mouse button and dragging with the button pressed. The default is the middle mouse button.

View Options ).
Pan Right - Pan left by the pan factor margin (see:

Pan Up - Pan left by the pan factor margin (see:
