Pan 1-2-3, Pan 1-2-3…
When you are zoomed in on a large map, panning to another part of the map is cumbersome.
Here is the fastest way to pan to another part of a large map. This possibly only works well with newer faster computers. If you aren’t already a dab hand (finger) with the mouse wheel, then you will need to learn.
Holding down the Ctrl key;
- mouse wheel backwards to zoom all the way out,
- move the mouse pointer to the area you want,
- mouse wheel forwards to zoom in.
Editor’s note
I’m far from a dab hand with the mouse wheel but having mainly large maps I gave it a try. It’s great! Thanks Mark.
