    Well, the documentation describes it as saying that it zooms to the level where you can see major grid points. If you zoom out further, the major grid points would be too close together and so they are not drawn. However, I think it's incorrect. I think it's the minor grid points it is talking about. As far as I can see, it ensures you can see the minor grid points - I've fed back to the documentation team to correct this.

    Hi, Andrew.

    Thanks for the promptly reply.

    I was looking to get a scale zoom factor, like how it determines where the grid points (minor/major) are. In the schZoomFit, if it is a schematic cellview that contains a sheet border, it zooms to cover the sheet border, so I was looking for something similar for when there is no sheet border.
