How do I zoom?

I haven't played in quite some time, and can't for the life of me remember how to zoom out and rotate the game board. :roll:

On your keyboard (or at least mine), there should be a button on the very right of it that says "3" and "PG DN". I believe that zooms in. It's either that or the one that says "1" and "End". To Zoom Out, It Should be the one that says "9" and "PG UP" or The one that says "7" and "Home".

Do you hold another button down while pressing those ones? They don't do anything on their own...

I think Wonderfull might have meant the classic trilogy?

If you hold down the "Alt" and "X" keys and press numbers on the number pad then the game should zoom and rotate.

Ahh, yes, I was talking about the WA Editor, my bad.

For the Classic Trilogy, I have no clue.

For the WA Trilogy, hold down the key that says "0" and "INS" to zoom in, and let go to zoom out.

For anyone reading this topic in the future, you may or may not need to hold Ctrl-Alt-X while pushing the number keys, not just Alt-X.
The 2468 keys move the camera backwards, left, forwards or right, 1 makes it rotate upwards, 7 makes it rotate downwards, 9 raises it and 3 lowers it.
You have to restart or exit the level if you want the camera to go back to the correct position. You can try to move it back into place manually, but that can sometimes be difficult.
:D

What if we're reading the topic in the PAST? :lol:

Anyways, I knew you moved the camera with the # keys. (In some games.)
