unable to zoom out far enough

[johnnytripod]

Sometimes I'll start a new drawing and try to draw a line that is, say, 100 inches long. The line goes off the screen cause it's longer than the display is currently wide. I try to zoom or pan out with the mouse but I can't go past a certain screen size. It's like I butt up against a wall or something. I end up having to go up the the View/Zoom/Out command to "break out" of the setting. What is causing these limits to zoom/scroll? Is it a display option I can change? thanks. Johnny

I'm not sure what causes it, but it will happen in 2002 as well.

Hi, not sure what causes it, as kpetursson says but normally a Zoom Extents and a Regen will shift the bugger..
Thats what i do and 9 times out of 10, it sorts it out..
