Precisely selecting with a window

[Discus84]

Hi,

Very often the selection window is large enough for the drawing to be really zoomed out.

In this case it's hard to point the window exactly where it should be.

Zooming in is not possible because whatever is not on the screen will not be selected.

Am I missing something here? 

Is there a way  to zoom in and for the window to still catch whatever is not on the screen?

 

Thanks.
