How to Zoom In/Out?​

Einblick unbounded canvases can be easily navigated using the following zoom in/out shortcuts.

Zoom with trackpad​

Users using a device with a trackpad can use a pinch in and pinch out gesture to quickly zoom in and zoom out in a canvas.

Zoom with non-trackpad​

Users using a device without a trackpad can use a combination of a mouse wheel and the CTRL button to quickly zoom in and zoom out in a canvas.

Einblick's visualizations are not static and can be used to compose visual queries over your data. Visual queries and filter links benefit from the following shortcuts.

Standard Filter

If you drag out the bottom right icon of a chart onto another compatible visualization you will obtain a standard filter.

Brushing Filter​

If you click one time on a standard filter you will obtain a brushing filter. Brushing filters are useful to highlight the contribution of an upstream population into a downstream distribution.

If you click two times on a standard filter you will obtain a negation filter. A negation filter simply negates the selection made in the upstream visualization.

Canvas Blocks and Multiselect​

To create a canvas block, hold CTRL and draw a circle on the canvas. If you draw without touching any operators, it will automatically create a canvas block.
