Kaci,
I am not sure what you mean by explode. If you mean converting it to line entities, I highly recommend that you do not do this in that you will loose any functionality of updating the view.
If you mean enlarge the view. There is still a little ambiguity. Do you want to change the scale to make it larger? Do you want to redifene what you see in the view so that you can see more details. These are two completely different things. Could you clarify what you are looking for?
Thanks, Dale
