• Double click on the barb wire region of a gene model.  The view should zoom to fit the selected gene model.

• Zoom back out to view multiple gene models
• Right click on a different gene model.
• Validate that the menu looks as follows

• Select "Zoom to Selected"
• The view should zoom to fit the selected gene model
• Zoom slightly out in both the x and y direction.
• Select the hand "Grab Tool".

• Click and drag anywhere in the track view.
