The Zoom Tool in IsoView

  • Click on  to select the zoom tool.
  • Click inside the illustration and release the mouse button.
  • The illustration will be shown at a larger scale.
  • Click again and drag the mouse. You will see a rectangle which defines the area you want to zoom into.
  • Release the mouse.
  • IsoView will fit the rectangular area into the current display area.
  • Press the Shift key or click on  to select the zoom out tool. The cursor changes into a minus sign.
  • Click inside the illustration. The size of the illustration will be reduced.
 


One of the most important benefits of vector graphics in comparison to raster graphics is their quality when displayed in a magnified view. With IsoView you can zoom into the graphic to up to 6400 % of its original size.

Also, you can reduce its size down to 6.25 % in order to make an illustration fit into a window. Conventional raster viewers also allow zooming, but while the size increases, the quality decreases. In most cases, you can count the pixels of the image.

By using IsoView, you can concentrate on the technical details of the illustrator instead. The Zoom tool in combination with the high accuracy of representation allows you to view details which a TIFF viewer could never display.
