- WHAT'S ZOOM! ?
-
- Zoom! simply opens a small resizable window on your WorkBench screen, and
- zooms ;-) what's under your mouse pointer. To change view simply press your
- RMB when Zoom!'s window is ACTIVE. You can change the zoom rate by clicking
- on the "±" gadget. Timer device can be used to have an automatic re-zooming
- on the last position. You can change the automatic zooming delay time using
- the time gadgets, from NA ( Not Active ) to `?!', that's far far beyond 100
- seconds. The scaling factor and the delay time are shown on Zoom!'s drag-
- bar.
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- WHAT DOES ZOOM! NEED?
-
- o Kickstart 2.04 or higher
- o bitmap.library (enclosed) copied in your LIBS: directory
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- WHY WOULD *YOU* NEED ZOOM! ?
-
- None knows! ;-) I made this program just for fun. You can use it to form up
- your icons if you want!
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- USING ZOOM! FROM CLI
-
- USAGE: Zoom! [SCALE factor] [AUTO delay] [LEFT pos] [TOP pos] [WIDTH val]
- [HEIGHT val]
-
- Where SCALE specifies the magnification, AUTO specifies the length in secs
- before Zoom! re-zooms the last location, LEFT & TOP refer to the window's
- position, WIDTH & HEIGHT refer to the window's dimensions.
-
- To launch Zoom!, type 'Zoom!' (doing so you can press CTRL-C to quit), or
- type 'run Zoom!' (and to quit, you should send him a break signal by tiping
- 'break <process_number>' from CLI).
- You can also click on the window's close gadget to exit. :-)
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- USING ZOOM! FROM WORKBENCH
-
- Double-click on its icon.
- To exit click on the window's close gadget.
- Clicking on '±' gadgets will modify the scaling factor through 2 to 40.
- Clicking on the time gadgets will modify the auto-zooming delay.
-
- CLI options can be specified by writing them in the tooltypes.
- ( E.g.: AUTO=5, WIDTH=100 ) Remember not to put spaces between the option,
- the equate symbol and the value!
