# Zooming In and Out

Use the Zoom option to move the camera eye toward or away from the point of interest. While viewing the scene in Camera view, zoom in or out from the point of interest to move the camera eye closer to or farther from the point of interest. In Top, Side, or Front view, you can enlarge or reduce the scene in the image window without affecting the camera. Zooming has no effect in Schematic view.

To zoom the camera:

1. From the Edit Mode box, select Zoom.
2. Place the cursor in the image window.

   The cursor changes to a magnifying glass.

3. To zoom in, drag the cursor to the left. To zoom out, drag the cursor to the right.
