I am doing the following... Another method by which you can zoom into an area on the chart is to use the Zoom In tool. Select Tools >> Zoom In. To use this tool, left click with your pointing device at the left side of the area you want to zoom in to, move your pointing device and left click again at the right side of the area you want to zoom in to. When you left click the second time, the chart will display the area from the left and right positions that you selected. Please see attachment regarding what this procedure is doing to the scaling. Please tell me how to correct this. Thanks |

Yes this is correct. It is necessary to go to a user-defined scale to display a specific upper and lower boundary. You then need to select Tools >> Cancel Zoom In to go back to the automatic scale.

So what you're saying is, every time I want to Zoom-in, I need to choose Tools/Zoom-in, then left click and right click the area I want to zoom-in on, then go to Chart Settings/Scale and set user-defined scale... then when I want everything back to normal, choose Tools/Cancel Zoom-in?

No not at all. We are just simply saying why the user-defined scale is set by that tool. And where did you determine this from: "right click the area "?

Correcting my typo... So what you're saying is, every time I want to Zoom-in, I need to choose Tools/Zoom-in, then left click on either side of the area I want to zoom-in on, then go to Chart Settings/Scale and set user-defined scale... then when I want everything back to normal, choose Tools/Cancel Zoom-in? |
