### Zooming, panning, and centering maps with the Map Navigator

On the Analyzer tab, the Map Navigator provides a small scale version of the currently displayed map. Similar to the Preview and Analyzer tabs, the Map Navigator includes commands for zooming, panning, and centering geographic maps. You can zoom in and out on your maps whenever you need to view more specific or general information.
By panning, you can quickly drag your map anywhere. You can then return your map to the center of the tab by using the center command.

One of the benefits to using the Map Navigator is that it always offers a complete view of the geographic map you are working on. If you use the Map Navigator to perform a command on a particular part of the map, the changes are reflected on the full-sized map on the Analyzer tab. For example, you could choose the Zoom In command on the Map Navigator to examine the eastern United States in more detail. The full-sized map displayed on the Analyzer tab would then zoom in one level of magnification on the eastern United States, leaving the map on the Map Navigator intact.

###### While the Map Navigator allows you to easily select a portion of the map, it does not display your changes in detail. The mapping tasks that require more attention to detail should be performed with the full-sized map displayed on the Analyzer tab.
