Selecting Zoom to Fit

Zoom to Fit is an Enhanced Coordinate System option that automatically resizes the picture area to fit the entire window and also suppresses scroll bars. The Zoom to Fit option is only for viewing pictures and does not allow you to edit the picture.

NOTES:

  • When using Zoom to Fit in Configuration mode, edits to the file are disabled and grids are also disabled.
  • When using Zoom to Fit on a picture with a lower resolution that was converted to the Enhanced Coordinate System, be sure to verify that all the objects are visible. Check the height and width of the picture in run mode. If all the objects are not visible, change the height and width of the picture  to see all the objects. Then, Save the picture.  By default Zoom to Fit is enabled in run mode.  To disable Zoom to Fit, press Ctrl+M.  All objects should appear in the picture.

To select Zoom to Fit to view a picture:

  1. Open the picture you want to use for Zoom to Fit.
  1. In Classic view, select the Windows menu and then Zoom to Fit — or press Ctrl+M.

-Or-

In Ribbon view, on the View tab and in the Zoom group, click Zoom to Fit — or press Ctrl+M.

The Workspace displays a message box to inform you that:

    • Zoom to Fit is view only and edits are disabled.  
    • Turn Zoom to Fit off (Ctrl+M) to enable editing.
  1. Click OK to continue.

The picture automatically scales to fit the entire window and suppresses the scroll bars.

A small toolbar appears, which you can select to close Zoom to Fit, or you can enter Ctrl+M to toggle Zoom to Fit.
