Hi Larry,

I did some research and it turned out that the step size is controlled by the 
BasicSliderUI behind JSlider (I'm using Substance L&F) in my case and move 1/10 
of the total value range. In case of metal L&F it jumps by one unit. I don't 
know if there is a simple way of configuring that. 


Regarding the use of logarithmic scale: Google map uses 18 levels of zooming 
with each level doubling the resolution of the previous one. It can cover from 
the entire earth surface to the street level, sufficient in most cases. In my 
case I'm doing a advanced restaurant search tool often I feel the OpenJUMP 
zooming jumps a little too fast. I think if I can find how to set the "step 
size" of the JSlider then I have the control. 

Any Swing insight here? 


Thanks

Bing

Hi Bing,

  I'm not sure if the zoom bar can display the full range of zooms if the step 
size is only 2.  It is kind of like a logarithmic scale.  The zoom bar's 
purpose is to provide a fast way of making gross changes in zoom levels, and to 
display the current zoom level's order of magnitude.  The usual way of zooming 
by a factor of two is to use the zoom tool, either by explicitly selecting it, 
or by using a quasimode modifier key (Alt).  A more dynamic zoom capability is 
available with the Zoom Realtime tool (use left and right mouse drag to 
reposition and zoom at the same time).

regards,
Larry

  I'd like to change the step size of the zoombar from 10 to 2 for example. 
Currently the zoom level change by an order of magnitude when I click on either 
side of the knob. I couldn't figure this out. 

  Any help is appreciated.
