Scaling...Print Preview <>

JR
Prior to training myself how to use the command line in LibraCAD I'm acquainting myself with scaling using the following tutorial:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21pD_rFdoDQ

In this lesson, after setting up a Grid Status 0.1/1; zooming in to proper size; and drawing a 1"x2" rectangle; (9:51) the user goes to Print Preview, sets the scale to 1:1 and proceeds to see a page showing the rectangle he wanted.

When I go to Print Preview, and set the scale to 1:1, my cursor turns into a hand; the screen goes grey (I have the program set to light background) and no matter how much I drag the image I never see the rectangle or the page onto which the rectangle is scheduled to print.

How do I get the program Print Preview to act the way it acts in the youtube?

(by the way, I set Current Drawing Preferences/Paper to Letter/Landscape: In order to get Drawing Preferences to take I needed to Save, Quit, and Restart the program)

After setting the scale, press the button "Center to page".
