In all CAD Programs there is a feature to “Zoom Window”.  Where you click once and create a rectangle click again and it will zoom to that rectangle.  It gives you the ability to quickly zoom to a specific area of your drawing.  This case, zoom to a specific area of the canvas. 

 

For Reference:

Cognite Charts: Select zoom window with the mouse.  In this request from 2 years ago, the same feature was implemented on the charts portion of CDF. I wanted to respond to this one quickly, since this is functionality is already available. If you want to zoom into a specific range, click + shift and drag  to highlight a section on the plot.

 

 

Here is a video showing the functionality in AutoCAD.
