Keyboard:

The easiest way to scroll with the keyboard, is to move the cursor near the edge of the visible part of the drawing.

The plan will continue to scroll as you progress towards the edge, until it is at the end of the drawing. This works even when you are drawing lines or other drawing elements.

• Press Page UP to shift the plan a full page up
• Press Page DN to shift the plan a full page up
• Use the Shift key with the above to shift horizontally.

• Press HOME to go to the upper left corner
