I’m working on a file provided by a customer. the work area is locked so that everything is on the upper left side of the screen. when I hold down the space bar I can’t navigate through the work area. how do I unlock the work area so I can move it and place it anywhere on the center of my screen. I’m not talking about the workspace window I am talking about the area within the window.
