There are 2 main ways to expand your project view within Aurora. This article will walk you through both ways in detail.
Expand Satellite Imagery
- Go to the Design View of your project
- Zoom out of view using either your mouse scroll wheel (or touchpad), or by clicking the +,- arrows in the top left corner of your Design.
- As you zoom out and move your mouse outside of the image, a shaded box and diagonal arrows should appear around your site map. Click in the shaded area to expand your site map.
- Once you draw your roof, your site map will remain in the extended view.
