Using the Zoom Area
When the Zoom Area is active, only a small portion of your terrain is displayed in the 3D Preview. The 3D Preview displays the zoomed-in portion of your Terrain Canvas. You can use this feature to see small variations in the surface of your terrain. The Zoom Area can be moved to any point on your Terrain Canvas. You can always paint while the Zoom Area is active; in fact this is a nice way to paint in the Terrain Canvas while previewing a small section in the 3D Preview to observe details.
To turn the Zoom Area on or off, click the Zoom Area button in the Terrain Canvas tool area.

The Zoom Area button will change to white and toggles a marquee on your Terrain Canvas.

The area within the marquee will be displayed in the 3D Preview.
