A graphical object can also be used as the target of an action. For example, you may often want to click on one object in order to move to another one. The target object is then displayed in the window. The setting in the View context field influences the area displayed around the target object. Choose a setting from the View context drop-down list.

No special target area is defined for the object. The object is enlarged so that it fills the screen section.

With this command, the part of the illustration which is currently visible can be defined as the extent. By enlarging or reducing the scale and moving as necessary, you can define the section that you wish to assign to the object. Then open the Object info dialog box and choose current window from the View context drop-down list. The coordinates that are found are displayed next to View context.

This allows you to specify that the size of the object is to be used to define the extent. If you choose this setting, the extent will automatically be adapted to the size of the object if the latter changes.

Selecting this command will open another dialog box where you can enter the width and height of the extent. The dimensions of the object will be shown as a recommendation.
