The Pan & Zoom Window

The Pan & Zoom window provides a 'birds-eye' view of diagrams. It enables you to navigate quickly around large diagrams.

Note that Dashboard diagrams are designed to automatically size to the display screen, so the Pan & Zoom facilities are grayed out when these diagrams are opened.
