Create a Spatial Bookmark

Zooming In adjusts the map's scale so that you can see features like streets and read the labels. To make sure that you can come back to the map at this scale, you can create a Spatial Bookmark.

1. Click on the Bookmarks pull down menu at the top, left-hand side of the screen.
2. Choose Create.
3. In the Spatial Bookmark dialog box that appears, name your Spatial Bookmark "Manhattan."
4. Use the Bookmark pull down menu – your "Manhattan" Bookmark should be there.

   Now any time you want, you can use the Bookmark tool to zoom out to the scale you created with the Manhattan bookmark. To erase or re-organize Bookmarks, use the Manage function.
