Scaling the X-Axis and Navigating to Significant Data

zooms in on selected data.

required magnification area with the selection window. You can repeat this process multiple

axis and y-axis, allowing you to scroll through the adjacent areas.
You can undo the zoom by holding down the Alt key and clicking the left mouse button in the
display area.
