Today, I'll demonstrate a few basic viewing and selecting functions that you can use in

Dean Plan to work more efficiently.

You can zoom in and out of a drawing using the wheel of your mouse.

Alternatively, you have the option to zoom with the help of the icons in the toolbar.

This icon here enables you to zoom to a specific part of the plan that you want to show in

detail.

Pressing the F5 key results in a zoom in or out of the drawing in a way that all elements

of the drawing are visible.

You can move the worksheet by holding the wheel on your mouse.

If you press the command button before holding the wheel on your mouse, you can turn the

view to your preference.

The toolbar offers predefined views from different angles.

For example, the plan view or top view, the bottom view, different side views, and four

isometric views.

Furthermore, you can work in multiple windows with different views at the same time.

If you now change the object in one of the views, the changes will automatically occur

in the other views as well.

You can select objects in two different ways.

Selecting from right to left results in the selection of every object that is touched

by the highlighted area.

The red frame indicates this art of selection.

If you select from left to right, you will only select objects that are completely within

the highlighted area.

This selection method is indicated by the green frame.

Command A selects all objects of the drawing.

Additional useful shortcuts for changing the view are commands 1 to 4.

Command 1 changes the display of the building shell and shows the wireframe graphic.

Command 2 switches to shaded mode, which was our original mode.

The hidden line mode can be activated with command 3.

Shortcut command 4 changes in the wireframe on shaded mode that highlights edges, which

I find quite helpful.
