As a subject matter expert in SolidWorks, I can guide you through the process of panning in the software. Panning is a way to move the view around within the graphics area without changing the zoom level. Here's how you do it:
1. Select the Pan Tool: You can find the Pan tool in the View panel of the CommandManager, or you can press the Spacebar on your keyboard to activate it temporarily.
2. Click and Drag: Once the Pan tool is active, click and hold the left mouse button anywhere in the graphics area and drag the view to the desired position.
3. Use the Mouse Middle Button: Alternatively, you can also pan by clicking and holding the middle wheel button on your mouse and dragging.
4. Keyboard Shortcut: Pressing the Spacebar and dragging is another quick way to pan.
5. Touchpad Gestures: If you're using a touchpad, a two-finger swipe can also be used to pan.
6. Return to Original View: After panning, if you want to return to the original view, you can press the 'F' key to enter the 'Fit' view mode, which will zoom out and re-center the part or assembly.

Use your middle mouse button as a Scroll Wheel. Simply hold your curser over the model and then scroll away! Pan: Use the CTRL Key + hold down your middle button, and you can Pan your Part on the screen.
