Scrolled too far when working on map

Hey!

So I've been working on a map, and I scrolled too far and now the map screen is blank.

I know there is a way to get back to your map, could anyone tell me how to do this as i've forgotten.

Thanks!

Alternatively you could press the undo button

Thanks Sol! That worked!

One quick question, do you know how i could delete a shape file that I no longer need?

Many thanks,

James

Sorry didn't see Sol's comment re: back button.

With regards to the shape file if you go to the Table of Contents on left hand side the first 2 icons underneath are:

- List by Drawing Order

- List by Source

Find your shapefile and you should be able to right click and delete/remove.

However if it something you may need again it might be worth exporting first so that you can add it again at a later date if needed.

Hope that works

Alison
