Navigation interface
There are many possibilities to navigate on the main map, that is to change the scale and the position
the arrows surrounding the map;
the dynamic (i.e. clickable) keymap;
the navigation tools (zoom and pan), which are detailled below;
the drop down menu "Scale";
the various options in the "Search" tab.
The menu "Mapsize" is self- explanatory.
The Zoom In tool allows you to focus on a specific, smaller region of the Europe area. Click the Zoom In button and then either click the map near the center of the region you are interested in or click-and-drag a rectangle surrounding the area. The Zoom In tool can be used multiple times to move closer and closer to desired regions.
The Zoom Out tool allows you to focus on a larger area of the map than is currently displayed. Click the Zoom Out button and then click the map near the center of the larger region you are interested in. The Zoom Out tool can be used multiple times to view larger and larger regions.
The Pan Map tool allows you to move the center of the viewing area without changing the scale of the map. Click the Pan Map button and then click and drag the map image to recenter it.
The Zoom to Full Extents tool allows you to quickly reset the current map view to the entire Europe area. There is no need to click on the map to activate this tool - it is activated as soon as you click the Zoom to Full Extents button.
