Documentation | Help File | UI | 2D Mode | Menu | View | Previous Extent

Clicking on the View/Previous Extent menu item sets the extent visible within the Map area to as it was prior to the last zooming or dragging.

To make the Map area display the extent prior to the last zooming or dragging operation, click on the View/Previous Extent menu item.

• The icon on the Standard toolbar.
• The Previous extent item in the Map area context menu.

• To set the extent visible within the Map area to contain the entirety of all open layers, use the Full Extent feature.
• To set the extent visible within the Map area to contain the entirety of the active layer, use the Layer Extent feature.
• To set the extent visible within the Map area to contain all the selected shapes, use the Selected Extent feature.

• The Alt+Backspace key combination.

• The Editor memorizes up to five recent extents. The first click returns to be most recent extent, the second click to the second most recent extent, etc.
• The Previous Extent feature works as a loop. On the fifth click the extent returns to as it was before the Previous Extent feature was used (i.e. before the first click).
