Description
Zoom in map content
Mouse Wheel Up
Scrolling up the mouse wheel, zooms in the map content toward location of the mouse cursor over the UltraGeographicMap control. This is equivalent to decreasing values of WindowScale property and adjusting WindowPositionHorizontal and WindowPositionVertical properties.
Zoom out map content
Mouse Wheel Down
Scrolling down the mouse wheel, zooms out the map content away from location of the mouse cursor over the UltraGeographicMap control. This is equivalent to increasing values of WindowScale property and adjusting WindowPositionHorizontal and WindowPositionVertical properties.
Zoom to map area
Control key + Mouse Drag
Pressing the Control key while mouse dragging, creates a map area rectangle that indicates a new position and size of navigation window for the map content when mouse button is released. This is equivalent to setting WindowRect property to a rectangle of desired dimensions.
Pan left (west) map content
Mouse Down + Mouse Drag right
Dragging the mouse right, pans the map content towards left edge (west direction) of the UltraGeographicMap control. This is equivalent to decreasing value of the WindowPositionHorizontal property.
Pan right (east) map content
Mouse Down + Mouse Drag left
Dragging the mouse left, pans the map content towards right edge (east direction) of the UltraGeographicMap control. This is equivalent to increasing value of the WindowPositionHorizontal property.
Pan top (north) map content
Mouse Down + Mouse Drag down
Dragging the mouse down, pans the map content towards top edge (north direction) of the UltraGeographicMap control. This is equivalent to decreasing value of the WindowPositionVertical property.
