I zoom in to the area until I see the elevation lines:
Then I want an overview over the area so I zoom out. First I try 'level zoom':

Then I try digital zoom instead, see attachement 'digital zoom'.
A little better, but not useful.
I still think level zoom with the 'increase detail level' would be a useful option.
(I use Airdroid to create the sceen shots)
