Summary
Aside from the standard View control type commands, such as zooming and panning, CircuitStudio includes other tools to help with working in a busy and dense design.
Details
View control tools are available in the View tab of the Ribbon.
There are also a number of View control commands available in the right-click menu, as shown below.
As well as using any of these commands on their own, zooming and panning shortcuts can also be used while another command, such as placing an object, is still being run.
Command | Behavior |
---|---|
Zoom In | Zoom in closer to the sheet. Note that the zoom action occurs around the current cursor location, so clicking the Ribbon button does not always give an ideal result. Zoom In shortcuts include: - PgUp - Ctrl+Wheel Roll Up - Ctrl+Right-mouse click and hold, then move mouse up |
Zoom Out | Zoom out from the sheet. Note that the zoom action occurs around the current cursor location, so clicking the Ribbon button does not always give an ideal result. Zoom Out shortcuts include: - PgDn - Ctrl+Wheel Roll Down - Ctrl+Right-mouse click & hold, then move mouse down |
Zoom Document | Zoom to show the entire schematic sheet. |
Mask Level # | Dim and Mask are display filter modes where everything other than the object(s) of interest are faded, leaving only the target object(s) at normal display strength. The Mask mode filters out all other objects, only allowing the unfiltered object(s) to be edited. Use the slider to define how faded the masked objects are. |
Dim Level # | Dim and Mask are display filter modes where everything other than the object(s) of interest are faded, leaving only the chosen object(s) at normal display strength. The Dim mode applies the filter but still allows all objects to be edited. Use the slider to define how faded the dimmed objects are. |
Clear Masks# | Click the Clear button to remove a filter (Mask or Dim) - shortcut Shift+C. |
Right+click and drag | Hold the right mouse button down to display the slider (panning) hand , then drag to move your view of the workspace. |
Workspace Right-click | Right-click in the workspace to access the View menu, which includes a number of zoom-type commands, including: Fit All Objects, Fit Document, Area, Zoom In, Zoom Out, and Selected Objects. |
