    • "Classic" then the zoom controls are located at the top left of the map. You can click the control once to change the zoom level.

    • "Modern" then the zoom controls are located at the bottom right of the map. By default the Data view is located on top of this control so you may need to close a view to access the zoom control. You can click the control once to change the zoom level.
