### The Image Area

The Image Area is your main viewport. It usually displays one image at a time, albeit in the future it will be possible to display several images together.
Within your viewport, your mouse pointer will change to a cross to more clearly indicate what pixel you are pointing at.
You can manipulate the viewport using your mouse and hotkeys in a similar way to how maya and 3dmax work. Using your mousewheel you are able to zoom in and out from the pixel your cursor is pointing at.
Using the
LMB
you can select an area. The main purpose of selecting an area currently is to get the color information of the whole area. See The Color Area Window.
Using the
MMB
or
ALT+LMB
, you can scroll around the image canvas.
Using the
Mousewheel
, you can zoom in and out of the location where the mouse is pointing at.
Using the
RMB
, you can bring up a context sensitive menu to allow you open new windows, copy pixel values or add and change some image properties. Using the
Shift + Mouse Move
, you can scrub the movie or image sequence to pinpoint a section of it.
