rspec advice

Hello all, I have collected some first order blazed spectrums from a couple of stars and managed to import the raw files into rSpec, I subtracted background and oreintated it so the first peak can be calibrated as the zero order peak. I then tried to use a reference curve to calibrate the second point- trouble is, in the video on the rspec website they zoom into the curve to highlight salient featrures to match with the reference curve. I am on a laptop and I can't seem to zoom into the curve.
The is Alpha canis majoris (A1 spectral) so I have been using A0ii? I think reference curve.
Any tips on using this programme?
Graham
