Zoom in on picture in Adobe Express

Question

Hi,

I'm new in using Adobe Express. I want to use it for something very simple (I thought): to create a photobook that can be downloaded as pdf, nothing fancy. In the past, I have been using simple programs that are available on the internet to create a to-be-printed photobook, and I expected to find (at least) the same tools in Adobe. One tool that I cannot find is the simple option to zoom in on a photo that I added to my book. The menu on the left of my screen says: Your stuff, Templates, Media, Text, Elements, Grids and Add-ons. No Zoom option. Pressing the righthand button on the mouse also does not show that option. I find it hard to believe that it does not exist. Anyone here that can help me? Thanks!

Do you want to zoom as in just to view your design bigger on screen, or just crop your image in the placeholder.
If that's the latter, you need to double click on the image to enter the "crop" state. You can also right click on the image (after having selected it) and choose crop from there

once there you can move the handles to adjust the rectangle the image sits in (crop)
or adjust the rotation and scale of said image

if you want to "zoom", scale is what you'd want to increase.

Once set, click anywhere outside the image to return to the normal state.
