  2. (Optional) Change the view of the address on the map in one of these ways.

    • Choose Map → Zoom to All or Map → Zoom to Selected.

      The zoom level on the map changes as needed to display the address from 2000 feet (1:24,000). Because there is only one address, and because it is selected by default, Zoom to All and Zoom to Selected have the same results in the Map Items dialog box.

    • Choose Map → Pan to Selected.

      The view of the map shifts (pans) as needed at the current zoom level to display the address. Because there is only one address, it is selected by default.

    You can zoom in or out on the map in any of these ways.

    • Click Zoom In or Zoom Out, and then click on the map to move closer to or further away from the Earth.

    • Click Zoom To, and then in the menu that appears, select a specific distance to zoom in or out to.

      If you select Map Item in the menu, the Select item to zoom to dialog box appears, and you can select one of the zoom options in the dialog box.

    The map view changes correspondingly each time you click the map.

    • Click Pan, place the mouse pointer on the map, and then drag the mouse in any direction to move the view in the corresponding direction, until you can see the location of the address on the map.

    Note: Because there is only one address in the dialog box, and the address is selected by default, you do not need to use the Select icon in the left pane.
