Zooming In on Your Design

August 11, 2026 by Brian Boatright

Zoom in on your sticker any time you're designing — to check fine detail, place your cut line precisely, or position text just right. Zooming only changes what you see on screen; it never changes your sticker's real size or how it prints.

On a computer:

1. Upload a picture. The zoom buttons appear in the bottom-right corner of the design area.
2. Click + to zoom in and − to zoom out. You can also hold Ctrl (or Cmd on a Mac) and scroll your mouse wheel to zoom toward your pointer.
3. Once zoomed in, move around by dragging any open space — your pointer becomes a hand where dragging will move the view. Scrolling also moves you up and down, and holding Shift while scrolling moves you sideways.
4. Click 1× to jump back to the normal view.

On a phone or tablet:

1. Upload a picture, then pinch the design area with two fingers to zoom in and out.
2. While zoomed, move around with two fingers.
3. One finger still does what it always did — move your cut line, slide your picture, or drag your text.
4. Tap 1× in the corner of the design area to jump back out.

The zoom stays where you set it while you switch between shapes and tools, so you can adjust your cut line, add text, and touch up edges all at the same close-up view. It resets when you replace your picture with a new one.

Everything you can normally drag still works while zoomed in:

• Your text — drag the text itself to move it, or its corner handle to resize it.
• Your cut line — drag near the dashed outline to move it (the pointer shows a move cursor there), or drag a corner square to resize it. Deeper inside the sticker, away from the outline, dragging moves the view instead — the pointer becomes a hand to show you.
• Your picture — with the Resize tool open, dragging moves the picture, and any text moves with it.

Q: Does zooming in make my sticker bigger? A: No. Zoom is only a magnifying glass for your screen. Your sticker's printed size comes from the Size you choose.

Q: I'm zoomed in and dragging moves the whole view instead of my cut line. How do I move the cut line? A: Grab it close to the dashed outline — the pointer changes to a move cursor when you're in the right spot. Dragging from the middle of the sticker moves the view instead. If it's easier, press 1× first, move the cut line, then zoom back in.

Q: Why doesn't scrolling move the page when my mouse is over the design? A: While you're zoomed in, scrolling moves you around your sticker instead of the page. Press 1× and the page scrolls normally again.

• You're zoomed in and can't find your artwork — Press the 1× button in the bottom-right corner of the design area to jump back to the full view.
• Pinching zooms the whole page instead of the sticker — Start the pinch with at least one finger on the design area. If the page itself has zoomed, zoom the page back out first, then pinch again on the design.
• The + button stops working — You've reached the maximum zoom (8× closer than normal). Zoom back out with − or 1×.
