  Usage Question
 
Is there a way to zoom into a specific area or scroll around once zoomed in? When ever I zoom in I get the center point of my model which may or may not (in most cases) be the area I want to look at in detail. Mike - mike_walsh@mindspring.com (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
