Zoom On/Off

  The Zoom On and Zoom Off menu items allow you to
  magnify portions of the canvas and then return to the
  standard sizing.

  Zoom acts like a magnifying glass in the drawing window,
  enlarging an image to eight times its original size.

  To magnify a portion of the canvas:

  1.  Choose Zoom On from the Options menu.

      The Zoom window opens beside the Paint window and
      you see a magnifying frame in the Paint window itself.
      The magnifying frame in the Paint window demonstrates
      the size of the image that Paint magnifies in the Zoom
      window.
      To edit a larger area of the canvas, you can resize the

      Zoom window,

  2.  Place the pointer inside the magnifying frame and drag
      the frame over the image that you want to edit.

      Notice that the Zoom window contains an enlarged
      version of the image that is defined by the magnifying
      frame in the Paint window.

  3.  Select the Pencil tool from the tool palette.

  4.  Bring the pointer into the Zoom window and use the
      Pencil to add fine details to the image.  Either click on
      individual pixels or draw over them.

  To close the Zoom window, choose Zoom Off from the Options
  menu.
