    Zoom

    Ok, I go a little crazy with the wheel on my mouse sometimes....but every once in a while it seems like I just hit it the wrong way and it zooms in so far that I can't see anything. But no matter what I do I can't zoom out again and I'm forced to exit and start over from what I last saved. This is getting very frustrating. Is there anyway to get back to my last view?

    Have you tried just hitting the "fill screen" instead of zooming out? Are you saying that you're trying to zoom out using the mouse?

    I was using the weel to zoom in on a plant I was editing, and I must have hit the wheel too hard or something because the screen just goes white and I can't move the arrows on the side or anything, but I know its still there...somewhere.... I've tried hitting "fill window" and it doesn't work.

    Well, try using the zoom tool not the mouse and try zooming in. How are you editing the plant? Is the plant an image or a cad plant (2d)? Open the layer options and be sure you're not somehow deleting it.

    I was just zooming in to resize it. It was part of my bigger drawing, but I just zoomed in WAY too far. Its annoying, I think I've pretty much tried everything to get it back, but nothing is working. I don't know why "fill window" isn't working.....but thanks for your help

    It seems to have autosaved itself, so all is good.

    When this happens, try using the "undue" tool. Maybe that will help.

    The mouse is actually not a logitech mouse, the name on the back says BENQ.
