Hello,
I am trying to click and drag the mapping area around so to see a different area or focus on area wishing to zoom in on. I am unable to click and drag screen in mapping area in order to move around. Is there a solution?
Assuming you are on a Mac then you can either use a trackpad, or press and hold the space bar to get the hand tool, clicking and dragging with the hand tool allows you to scroll.
You can use the scroll wheel and use shift-scroll wheel to scroll left and right.
