Zooming in with a graph with several areas of representation selected in the first zone

This behaviour is defined by default, giving priority to conserving the same X-axis in all areas (it

is usually useful to compare values with the same dates or intervals, and therefore does not apply if the
X- axes are different, and is only included in the enlargement of those areas with similar X-axes ,
although they are not consecutive). Note that when the enlargement is carried out in more than one
area all the new selections are horizontal.

The behaviour of "Zoom mode" can be changed by varying the idea previously discussed using

the "Control" or "Shift" keys while selecting the new display window.

The "Control" key forces the selection to include only the area where the enlargement is being

made; therefore if the graph consists of a single area this modifier has no effect. If the enlargement is
being made between two different areas (one corner of the new window is in one area and the other in
a different area), only the areas between the two are included.

For example, if the enlargement is started in the first area and finished in the second, only

these two areas and not the third will be enlarged. A curious effect caused by this mode is that areas
with different X-axes can appear. In addition, this behaviour does not take into account whether the X-
axes are equal or not, always forcing the enlargement regardless of this information, thus allowing the
expansion of two zones with different X-axes, something that would be impossible with the default
behaviour.
