In this lesson, you’ll learn essential techniques for panning and zooming to navigate your survey drawings efficiently.

We’ll begin with Zoom Extents, which automatically centers and scales your drawing to fit the page. After this, you’ll select your preferred scale and position the survey exactly where you want it on the page. You’ll also learn how to edit the user scale list to customize your zoom options.

Next, we’ll explore different zoom commands: Zoom Window, Zoom Previous, and Zoom Page—explaining what each does and when to use them.

You’ll discover handy hotkeys for these view controls making navigation quick and familiar.

We’ll also cover mouse controls: how to use the mouse wheel to zoom, and the left mouse button or mouse wheel click to pan, comparing these with using scroll bars for smooth navigation.

Finally, you’ll practice Zoom Window and try Zoom Points, highlighting how TPC drawings are not just for recording surveys but also for in-depth analysis. 

By the end of this lesson, you’ll navigate your drawings like a pro, saving time and improving your workflow.
