Using Navigation Windows

A Navigation window is a small window that lets you view the overall contents of the larger window, including the areas not currently displayed. You can see the number of selected jobs not currently visible in the larger windows. Navigation windows do not display the text displayed in the larger windows. You cannot shrink Navigation windows to icons.

You can display a Navigation window for either the Graphical or Linear Display window by clicking on the box located in the corresponding window where the horizontal and vertical scroll bars meet. When you have finished using the Navigation window, click on this box again to remove the Navigation window from the screen.

The following sections describe how to use a Navigation window to:

• Select and display a new portion of the Graphical Display window or the Linear Display window
• Scale objects in the Graphical Display window

The next two figures show the Navigation windows for the Graphical Display window and the Linear Display window.
