Zooming
To view the entire Stage on the screen, or to view a particular area of your
drawing at high magnification, you can change the magnification level.
The maximum magnification depends on the resolution of your monitor
and the document size. The minimum value for zooming out on the Stage
is 8%. The maximum value for zooming in on the Stage is 2000%.
To magnify or reduce your view of the Stage, do one of the
following:
To zoom in on a certain element, select the Zoom tool in the Tools
panel, and click the element. To switch the Zoom tool between
zooming in or out, use the Enlarge or Reduce modifiers (in the options
area of the Tools panel when the Zoom tool is selected) or Alt-click
(Windows) or Option-click (Macintosh).
To zoom in on a specific area of your drawing, drag a rectangular
selection on the Stage with the Zoom tool. Flash sets the magnification
level so that the specified rectangle fills the window.
To zoom in on or out of the entire Stage, select View > Zoom In or
View > Zoom Out.
To zoom in or out by a specified percentage, select View >
Magnification, and select a percentage from the submenu or select a
percentage from the Zoom control at the upper-right corner of
the Timeline.
To scale the Stage so it fits completely in the application window, select
View > Magnification > Fit in Window.
To display the contents of the current frame, select View >
Magnification > Show All, or select Show All from the Zoom control at
the upper-right side of the application window. If the scene is empty,
the entire Stage appears.
