Is there an easier way to move around in the chopper when in magnified view- It's easy enough to find the end of a seleciton it seems but, when I want to get to the beginning of my chopper selection (to find a zero crossing point) it either takes forever, or it "de magnifies" my selection. As a result, it gets pretty tedious to find zero crossing points at the beginning and end of a chopper selection. Is there an easier way to move around in the chopper when the selection is really magnified?

To get to the ends of a selection made in the Chopper, use 5 on your keyboard's numpad.

Don't forget many standard Windows document shortcuts can also work. You can, for example, hold down SHIFT plus tap the left or right cursor keys to select/deselect a Chopper selection pixel by pixel (according to magnification).

man...thanks, you have no idea (well, probably some idea) of how long it takes me to properly chop a loop- I really need to learn my quick keys.
