<h2>4.7 Zoom and pan</h2>
<p>
You can zoom in and out the current drawing by changing the resolution
in the <em>Resolution</em> toolbar. The number displayed there is the
number of pixels that correspond to one inch in your document.
<p>Related are the functions <em>Normal size</em> (which sets the
resolution to 72 pixels per inch), <em>Fit page</em> (which chooses the
resolution so that the current page fills the canvas), <em>Fit
objects</em> (which chooses the resolution such that the objects on the
page fill the screen), and <em>Fit selection</em> (which does the same
for the selected objects only). All of these are in the <em>Zoom</em>
menu.
<p>You can <em>pan</em> the drawing either with the mouse in <em>Pan</em>
mode, or by pressing the "." (period) key ("here") with the mouse
anywhere on the canvas. The drawing is then panned such that the
cursor position is moved to the center of the canvas. This shortcut
has the advantage that it also works while you are in the middle of
any drawing operation. Since the same holds for the <em>zoom in</em> and
<em>zoom out</em> buttons and keys, you can home in on any feature of
your drawing <em>while</em> you are adding or editing another object.
