<p>A system and method for allowing a user to selectively view an automatically zoomed region of a displayed initial viewable area. Typically, the automatically zoomed region is deployed by the user when placing mark-ups in the viewable area. The automatically zoomed region may be displayed by itself, or it may be displayed simultaneously with an un-zoomed portion of the initial viewable area. After the user places a mark-up in the viewable area, the automatically zoomed region is closed, and the initial viewable area is returned to the displayed viewable area.</p>
