Resolving The Problem

  • Zoom Out - keyboard shortcut Ctrl & '-' or Ctrl & mouse wheel down
  • Pan - Use vertical and horizontal scrollbars
  • Specification/Structured view - If you set the property General::Graphics::DefaultBoxView to "Structured", then classes and objects dragged from the browser will be displayed in "Structured" view by default. The Specification/Structured view button can then be used to have the element displayed in "Specification" view.
