To zoom out:

Select the zoom tool. Hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) to activate the
zoom-out tool. The pointer becomes a magnifying glass with a minus sign in its center
. Click the center of the area of the image you want to reduce. Each click reduces the
view to the previous preset percentage. When the file has reached its maximum
reduction level, the magnifying glass appears empty.
•
Click the Zoom out button
in the options bar to reduce to the previous preset
percentage. When the image has reached its maximum reduction level, the command
is dimmed.
•
Choose View > Zoom Out to reduce to the previous preset percentage. When the image
reaches its maximum reduction level, the command is dimmed.
•
(Photoshop) Enter a reduction level in the Zoom text box at the lower left of the
window.
•
(ImageReady) Click on the Zoom Level pop-up menu at the lower left of the document
window, and choose a zoom level.
To magnify by dragging:
1
Select the zoom tool.
2
Drag over the part of the image you want to magnify.
The area inside the zoom marquee is displayed at the highest possible magnification.
To move the marquee around the artwork in Photoshop, begin dragging a marquee and
then hold down the spacebar while dragging the marquee to a new location.
To display an image at 100%:
Do one of the following:
•
Double-click the zoom tool.
•
Choose View > Actual Pixels (Photoshop) or View > Actual Size (ImageReady).
To change the view to fit the screen:
Do one of the following:
•
Double-click the hand tool.
•
Choose View > Fit on Screen.
These options scale both the zoom level and the window size to fit the available screen
space.
To automatically resize the window when magnifying or reducing the view:
With the Zoom tool active, select Resize Windows to Fit in the options bar. The window
resizes when you magnify or reduce the view of the image.
When Resize Windows to Fit is deselected (the default), the window maintains a constant
size regardless of the image’s magnification. This can be helpful when using smaller
monitors or working with tiled views.
