Unable to use my mouse to scroll the screen layout

I am unable to pan or scroll my layout screen.

I am trying to enlarge the layout so that I can check my calibration with the position of the boxes.

I’ve managed to enlarge so that I can compare the left corner (no.4) but the top numbers go off screen. I am unable to scroll back down with my mouse.

I am also unable to scroll sideways so that I can reposition the layout to the center of lighburn screen.

I’ve attached a screen print it shows the box that is drawn when I try to use the mouse.

You can press the space-bar and left-click drag the workspace.

If it’s drawing a rectangle on the screen that remains behind, then the LightBurn Rectangle tool is active:

Instead of the Select tool:

The tinted icon in the stack over on the left of the workspace shows which tool is active. The Select tool should be active / tinted when you want to pan or zoom with the mouse, rather than draw shapes:

Source: Been there, done that. :grin:

You can, however, pan while the other tools are active with a press-and-hold on the middle mouse button while moving. Press-and-hold while rolling the mouse wheel will zoom the workspace, although that’s difficult on my trackball.

You can also click this icon to bring your work center of screen.

Fanks. Works a treat.
