• Navigation with the mouse. The primary method for navigating is the mouse. Pma.control works with all types of mice, however it is suggested that you use a mouse with a scroll wheel for the optimum performance. A mouse wheel with click-to-click scrolling is preferred for best user experience. The following diagram identifies how the mouse buttons are used.

* Panning: To move the image around, drag it with the mouse or your finger if you are using a touch enabled device. You can also navigate by clicking within the overview image as well as by dragging the rectangle inside it. Horizontal and vertical panning * Zooming: To zoom in or out scroll the mouse wheel, use the zoom control or pinch the screen using two fingers in a touch enabled device. Syncing viewers As already mentioned, it is possible to open multiple slides simultaneously. On top of this, you can “lock” the slides to each other, so that when you pan or zoom in one, the rest follow. This can be enabled by ticking the “Sync” check box, which can be found above the list of slides on the right slide of the page.
