Zoom in and out

Dreamweaver lets you increase the magnification (zoom in) in the Document window so that you can check the pixel accuracy of graphics, select small items more easily, design pages with small text, design large pages, and so on.

Note: The zooming tools are only available in Design view.

Zoom in or out on a page

  1. Select the Zoom tool (the magnifying glass icon) in the lower-right corner of the Document window.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • Click the spot on the page you want to magnify until you’ve achieved the desired magnification.

    • Drag a box over the area on the page that you want to zoom in on and release the mouse button.
