Function Description:
This command is used to display drawings that need to be plotted.
The preview is based on the current plot settings defined by the settings in
the Page Setup Manager or Plot dialog box. It shows exactly how the drawing will
look when plotted, including lineweights, fill patterns and other plot style options.
The cursor becomes a magnifier with a (+) to zoom in and a (-) to zoom out. Pressing the mouse and dragging the cursor to the top of
the screen will zoom in the preview image; on the contrary, dragging it to the bottom of
the screen will zoom out it.
