# zoom mode

When a geomap widget's mode option is "zoom", you can your your mouse to draw a rectangle. jQuery Geo will change the bbox of the map to match the rectangle as closely as possible based on the tiling scheme and viewport size.

This mode is more useful for dynamic map services and may be more familiar to GIS professionals.

Hint: in pan or any of the draw modes, you can hold the shift key to temporarily switch to zoom mode.
