Garyturner,

You have suggested an enhancement to the zoom feature of OOo3.0 presentation 
component. According to your post, it would make a slide presentation more 
natural and smooth, if we could select some portion of the slide (on which you 
want to focus attention), and then provide functionality to zoom in on that 
selected area. After a user opts to use this new zoom feature,  that user would 
be offered a way to return to  normal slide size and proceed with regular 
navigation through remaining slides. 

I have tried to do this OOo3.0 and also with OOo-dev3.3, on windows XP and also 
on Windows Vista using existing features and functionality. 

I did as follows:

1. Created one slide with two pictures pasted on it. These two pictures were  
different pictures in size and look.There was nothing special about these two.
2. Selected one picture
3.Clicked on view --> zoom by specifying zoom level value
   
The above process zoomed in the picture. But it did not achieve the same effect 
as required i.e. in the presentation mode of the slide it did not zoom-in on 
the click of a mouse.


Another way I have tried to test is by using "Custom  Animation, Modify Effect" 
feature of OO.
1. I created one slide with two pictures. There was no specific reason of 
choosing these two pictures. These were in no way related to each other. 
2. Selected one picture (say the second picture)
3. Clicked on Add given below the "Custom  Animation, Modify Effect" button of 
OO.
4. Clicked on Entrance
5. Clicked on Zoom and then OK.
6. Clicked on Play to see the effect.

When slide show started, the second picture did not appear until the mouse was 
clicked.
Even the above procedure is not satisfactory as it did not produce the effect 
of zooming the picture after clicking mouse in presentation mode.


However, if you can attach a file having some slides with animated description 
that the enhanced zoom feature should have, then that  would clarify the issue 
more and a strong case can be made in favor of the said enhancement.  This 
feature will be very helpful in presentation while focuing on a small portion 
of slide. The the OO development team may probably be requested to consider 
enhancing the existing zoom functionality.
