When you start [[EM.Cube]], the default grid cell size is set to 5 units. The default view may not be good enough for very small or very large structures. You can easily change the view settings of the project workspace. The simplest view operation is zooming in or out. This can easily be done using the scroll wheel of your mouse. Turning the scroll wheel towards yourself zooms out of a structure, while turning it away from yourself zooms in to the structure. Zooming in and out using the mouse scroll wheel is a temporary operation and does not change the view mode. [[EM.Cube]] provides a number of view modes, which persist until you change the mode or return to the '''Normal Mode'''. You can always return to the normal mode using the {{key|Esc}} (Escape) key of your keyboard. You can also return to the normal mode by clicking the '''Select''' [[File:select-tool_tn.png]] button of the View Toolbar or selecting the menu item '''View → Normal View'''.
The following table summarizes [[EM.Cube]]'s most useful and widely used view operations. "RMB" stands for the right mouse button.

One For most of [[EM.Cube]]'s persistent view modes is functions, the "Dynamic Zoom Mode" and it can be activated by clicking the '''Zoom Dynamic''' [[File:zoom-tool_tn.png]] keyboard shortcuts simply serve as an alternative to a toolbar button of the 'View Toolbar. In this mode you can continuously zoom in or zoom out by dragging the mouse around in the project workspace. You can pan the view by dragging the right mouse button (RMB) in the workspace while holding the {{key|Shift}} key down. Again, this is a temporary state and as soon as you release the right mouse button, the view operation endsmenu item. Alternatively, you can click In the '''case of Pan''' [[File:pan-tool_tn.png]] button of the View Toolbar to enable the "Pan Mode". In this case, the shape of the cursor changes to a hand, and the program stays in the Pan Mode until you return to the normal mode. Another very useful view operation is "Rotate View". You can change your viewing angle towards the structure and examine it from different directions. You can rotate Dynamic Zoom, the view very easily by simply dragging the right mouse button (RMB)in the workspace. This, too, is a shortcuts provide temporary state and as soon as you release the right mouse buttonfunctions, while the rotate toolbar buttons or menu item create a persistent view operation endsmode. Another alternateFor example, temporary, view rotation can be accomplished by dragging the right mouse button (RMB)in the workspace while holding the '''Alt Key''' down. Alternatively, you can click the '''Rotate View''' [[File:rotate-tool_tn.png]] button of the '''View Toolbar''' to enable the '''Rotate View Mode'''. In this caseview mode, dragging the shape of the cursor changes to two circular arrows, and [[EM.Cube]] stays in the Rotate View Mode until you return to the Normal Mode. You can also activate the Rotate View Mode by selecting '''Menu → View → Rotate View'''. While in the Rotate View Mode, you can perform two different rotation operations depending on whether you drag mouse with the left or right mouse buttons. You can perform a number held down results on the rotation of zoom operations in [[EM.Cube]]'s the project workspace. One of the most widely used tools is '''Zoom Extents'''. This tool automatically zooms to fit the whole structure into the main window. You can access this tool from '''Zoom Extents''' button [[File:zoom-to-extent_tn.png]] s view about different axes of '''View Toolbar''', or by using the keyboard shortcut '''Ctrl+E'''. Sometimes you may prefer to zoom on a certain part of a structure. In this case, you should use the '''Zoom Window''' tool, which can be accessed from '''Zoom Extents''' button [[File:zoom-to-area_tn.png]] of '''View Toolbar''', or by using the keyboard shortcut '''Ctrl+W'''revolution. Once this tool is enabled, draw a selection box around all the objects that rotate view mode stays active until you would like return to zoom to. The the normal view size is adjusted to fit the selected area. You can also zoom to one or more selected objectsusing the '''Zoom Selected''' toolmode.
