New to Scal 2 question

[cazann]

Okay so at long last i'm going to take the plunge and ugrade from Scal 1 top Scal 2, and i've downloaded the trial, but when i open it, i get a huge, and i mean huge mat with the pattern on, even though the mat size says it's 12x6,
It's so bad that i can't even make out what the file is that i've inported,
Anyone got any idea, please, i'm still scared stiff on going away from Scal 1. okay i'm a coward but i have a feeling it will make my life a bit easier, any help will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks Carole

If you look at the took bar there with be a magnifying glass with a plus sign and minus.. Just click on the minus sign one and on the mat and it will reduce the size of the page..

Hey Caz, haven't heard from you in a while. I usually use the View/Fit to window option to make the mat smaller.

Thanks to both of you for your replies, hey Heather, no. i've been doing other things, in fact i got a Robo for Christmas and have been playing with that, it seems i can cut out smaller lace designs and more intricate designd that the Expression doesn't like doing, but now's the time to play with my 'E', at some point i really should do some housework, but hey life's too short to worry about dust,
