hand tool in designer

Hi 🙂 I saw in a tutorial there's a hand tool in the graph but I can't for the life of me figure out how to access it? Thanks very much.

In addition to Luca's comments, if your mouse has a scroll wheel and middle mouse button, then pressing the middle mouse buttom enables panning (during which the cursor changes to the "hand" ) and zooming can be done with the wheel. I find this a bit quicker than Ctrl/Alt RMB

Hello,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us!

 

I am unsure what you mean by Hand tool. Would that be a tool similar to Photoshop and Illustrator which lets you pan the view?

If that is the case, holding Ctrl+RMB lets you pan in all of Designer's viewports: Graph view, 2D view and 3D view. Similarly, holding Alt+RMB lets you zoom in/out.

 

These controls are listed in this page of Designer's documentation.

 

Best regards.
