How to pinch out in iOS simulator when map view is only a portion of the screen?

I have a view on the iPad that I'm adding an MKMapView to that is say half the height of the full screen. However, when I try to pinch out on the iOS Simulator it doesn't work since the to nubs fill the entire iPad view on the simulator.

And so, with the map view half the screen and I press the Option key on the keyboard I cannot grab the map to pinch out.

Anyone know how to handle this?
