# Zooming

You can zoom in or out on the currently selected network using the buttons on the run and edit toolbars.

Figure 1: The Zoom buttons as seen in the run toolbar.

If you want to specify the magnification of the zoom, you can open a zoom pane by clicking the ‘Custom Zoom’ button among the zoom buttons. This function is useful on large networks to get a better view of the whole network. The Zoom Pane is shown in Figure 2.

You can also perform zooming operations using the following keyboard shortcuts:

- Ctrl + ArrowUp: Zoom in on the network (and monitor windows for discrete nodes, if in Run Mode). Current magnification is multiplied by 1/0.9.

- Ctrl + ArrowDown: Zoom out on the network (and monitor windows for discrete nodes, if in Run Mode). Current magnification is multiplied by 0.9.

- Ctrl + Home: Set magification to 100% for the currently selected network (and its monitor windows for discrete nodes, if in Run Mode).

- Shift + Home: Set magnification for the currently selected network (and its monitor windows for discrete nodes, if in Run Mode) such that the network fits the available area of the network window.

- Ctrl + Shift + ArrowUp: Similar to Ctrl + ArrowUp, except that only monitor windows are scaled.

- Ctrl + Shift + ArrowDown: Similar to Ctrl + ArrowDown, except that only monitor windows are scaled.

- Shift + End: Zoom to selected nodes, making the selected nodes fill out the entire view.

Scaling the monitor windows can be useful if they overlap.
