Keyboard Zoom Options

EazyDraw provides keyboard shortcuts for the "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out" functions. Type the letter "i" to zoom in. Type the letter "o" (the letter, not zero)) to zoom out. Caps or small letter, it doesn't matter. This is convenient because it does not involve the mouse, which is usually being used for drawing actions.

The keyboard zoom action is centerd on the mouse location, if the mouse is on the document. If the mouse is off the document the zoom is centered on the center of the document. So if you want to zoom in on a particular feature of your document, move the mouse to that area and hit "i". You need not click the graphic, the current state of selections has no affect.
