As you work within the Node Editor, you may find the need to zoom into or out of it to get a better look at the node tree, and to pan around the working area to deal with large collections of nodes.
— Drag the border between the Node Editor and the Viewer to the left or right to make it wider or narrower.
— Right-click anywhere within the Node Editor (except on a node) and choose Toggle Display Mode, which hides the Viewer and moves the Node Editor to the right of the Gallery, enlarging it considerably. Right-click and choose Toggle Display Node again to return to the default layout.
— Right-click anywhere in the Node Editor (except on a node) and chose Cleanup Node Graph from the contextual menu. This will rearrange your node tree to fit in whatever size working area you have at the time.
— Use the Node Editor’s zoom slider to shrink or enlarge the nodes in the Node Editor.
— Click the Pan tool (the hand icon) at the upper left-hand corner of the Node Editor, and drag anywhere within the gray area of the Node Editor to pan around.
— Press the H key to toggle between selection and pan modes in the Node Editor.
— Middle-click and drag anywhere within the Node Editor to pan around.
— Right-click and choose Zoom In or Zoom Out.
— Right-click and choose Zoom to Window to fit the node tree to the current size of the node graph.
— Right-click and choose Original Size to return the node graph to the default size.
