I have been asked by several people about using the zoom feature. Now while UFO-Pilot has given the answer as to where to find it, for those who have trouble using it, I'm posting the info I gave to Anais_anaislft to help her. I hope it helps everyone else as well.
Of course, turn zoom feature. Tap three fingers two times to zoom in. To go extremely close for fine detail, tap twice with three fingers but don't let go of the screen, and push up with your fingers, to zoom out, do the same thing only pull down with your fingers. While in zoom, always color, draw, or write in the very center of your pad. Never go near the edges or your line will pull you away from where you want to be. As soon as you want to color closer to an edge, just readjust the screen by using three fingers to move the screen back to the middle again. You don't have to tap at this time. Always do this and you won't have to erase so much, however, this is usually when you will get the little dots, which of course you can erase. With practice, you will get better at maneuvering around the board.
FOR STRAIGHT LINES:
Zoom in, then go to where you want the straight line ... Like on top of the TV (what's on TV quest), go close to the middle of the TV, then put your stylus or finger right on top of the very top edge of the TV (or under the edge inside of the tv, just depends what you want to color next to), at the very edge of your pad, the screen should move right along by itself. I usually go over where I want the line to end and then go back after to erase the excess. I do the same to the other side only the opposite way. Maintain the same light pressure to assure a straight line, or if its too hard the line might waiver. Practice is the key to getting this right.
I sure hope this helps those who haven't been able to get the knack of the zoom feature. Happy drawing everyone!
