Zooming in with frames

It is easy to zoom in or out to any section on the canvas using frames. Just frame the section that you want to show and set that frame as a step.

This recipe demonstrates how to zoom in. We will be zooming into a detail of a car, but you can use these steps to perform any movement from a larger section to a smaller section on the canvas.

Getting ready

Perform the following steps on a new prezi:

1. Open a new blank prezi.
2. Insert an image.
3. Delete any existing frames.

How to do it…

1. In the top-left corner, choose a frame type in the Frame drop-down menu (you may use any type).
2. Click on the frame icon to insert the frame on the canvas.
3. Drag the frame onto a detail of the image.
4. Resize the frame to your liking by pulling any of the four corner markers of the frame.
5. Switch to the Edit Path mode.
6. Now select the image to add it as a step to the path lane.
7. Then select your new frame to add it as step 2 to the path lane.
8. Click on Present to see how Prezi shows step 1 (the full image)...
