4. The Screen Setup of PhotoLine

## 4.19 The View-Dialog

The View-Dialog has four subdialogs.

- Page Map
The map contains a minimized view of the active document and is showing the visible area. You can change the visible area by clicking and dragging. If you drag a corner of the inverted area the zoom factor is changed. The map also has a context menu containing the most important zoom functions.
By the way: the card can be used with a modal dialog onscreen, too.
- Magnifier
The Magnifier shows an enlarged view of the piece of the document at the current mouse position. It has three working modes. Document shows the whole document, Layer the active layer and Selection only the current selection (see chapter 2.4.2). The modes Layer and Selection allow to define a background color. This is especially useful for Selection, because by choosing an appropriate background color you can control the quality of your selection more easily.
- Documents
Documents lists the currently opened documents.
- Pages
Pages lists the pages of the active document.
