Forgive me if this is a daft question, as I'm a newbie to Type light 3.2.
Is there a quick way of panning and scrolling around the glyph when I'm zoomed in? I use the mouse wheel to scroll in and out, but centering the part of the glyph I want to work on seems unnecessarily tedious. The only way I can find is to click on the scroll bar arrows, which works fine but is fiddly and time consuming.
On other editors there are faster ways. For instance, Xara and Visio work like this (using the mouse wheel):
Roll -> scroll up and down
Ctrl+Roll -> zooms in and out
Shift+Roll -> pans left and right
Once you've got used to it, it's an incredibly fast way of moving the image around on the screen. Other editors use arrow keys with a modifier, such as holding down the Ctrl key and using the arrow keys to move the image around.
All these ways are faster than clicking on those little scroll bar arrows. Is there something similar for Type light 3.2 that I haven't discovered?
Thanks,
Thack

Got it! Right-click-and-drag.
Happy now!

Yes, right-click and drag to move around, scroll wheel to zoom in and out. You should find it really easy to navigate - no need to press any keys or touch the scroll bars.
