Can you zoom in and out on the block diagram window?

My question is simple. Can you zoom in and out on the block diagram window?

Hi Champ065,

I've often found a simple question can result in an elaborate response.

The feature that may assist you is the Navigation window.  When the block diagram window is displayed, select View>>Navigation Window (Ctrl+Shift+N) and you'll be able to focus on your desired window-sized section of block diagram code.  In effect, this gives you the option of navigating a zoomed-out version of your VI's block diagram.  Is this what you're looking for?

If you're looking to zoom in on the actual pictures of your VIs, or want to view the entire block diagram on the screen and be able to interact/change the block diagram at the same time, then you may want to post this question on a LabVIEW forum, as the experts who monitor those posts may give you a better reply.

Hope this helps!

Hi abc_arz,

 

You can create a service request at ni.com/support. If you set the country on ni.com (in the top right corner) to where you live, you will find proper contact information for the National Instruments branch closest to you.

 

This will be the best way to get help with your LabVIEW questions.

 

Take care!

So far I havn't found a way to zoom in or out IN LV, however if you're using Windows 7 (if I recall correctly even in Vista) or later you could use the Magnifier (windows.microsoft.com/is-IS/windows7/Make-items-on-the-screen-appear-bigger-Magnifier) application wich lets you zoom in or out of a reasonable area around your pointer. Additionally it lets you work as usual so you can also modify your program while zooming in.
