[SOLVED] photoshop help

while using to lasso tool or any tool, how can i pan the view to continue using to lasso tool without losing my tracing. i can move around using the mouse pointer to pan to the right, up and down but when i move the mouse to the left side of the document its very slow to pan. are there any keyboard shortcuts (arrows didn’t work) that allow me to this while working. sorry if this is confusing Thanks
Answer #1
hold ctrl key and the mouse pointer turns into a hand and you can pan using that, i think thats how i used to do it.
Answer #2
thanks that worked. i have another question to ask.
why does all the pixels show up when i zoom in? i need it to be crisp and smooth vector drawing.

Answer #3
Press the spacebar, the pointer turns to the hand tool and then you can move. Simply leave the spacebar to continue.
To zoom, ctrl ++ Thats all, its easy
