Hi, Sam.
1) Assuming the enlarged portion wouldn't be interactive or anything, you can simpy first create a clone of your diagram (Alt+D), enlarge it, draw another rectangle on top of the clone, select both the rectangle and clone and then select object --> clip or object --> mask from the menu.
Cheers, Jimmy
Hello Inkscape List,
1) Is there an easy way to do this? By easy I mean if there an option for a box that limits graphic to inside the box... kind of .svg within an .svg?
