Did you get any response to this query? If so, I've missed it - no surprise, given the volume!
I got interested in the issue, and have been playing with the lockLoc property of the image. I do find the language confusing - the "image" is the control within which you display a JPEG (say). When lockLoc is true, the image (the control) stays as is, and the picture is forced to fit within it - which can lead to massive distortion, of course. When lockLoc is false (the default) the picture arrives in its native size - so your image may turn out to be a small window into it. You can grab the image and slide it around under the window. I've also done a ShrinkToFit handler, but I bet there are better ways of doing the job! If you're interested, I can send the stack to the User Space, or somewhere...

One might want to alter this ratio in order to "zoom" or "unzoom" an image. Note that I do NOT want a separate "zoom" window or magnifier. I want to take a image and either display it to "fit" in a window, or display it "normally" (1:1). Is there any way to specify the displayed width of an image independent of the actual width of the image (in pixels)? One might want to do this to "fit" an image into a fixed screen space, even if it is larger or smaller (in pixels) than the screen space. I've tried to manipulate real (large) images using the pixels, and have found Revolution to be stunningly slow (perhaps 100 times slower than native code). Am I doing it "wrong", or is Revolution aimed at doing things other than manipulating millions of pixels in tight loops? Thanks!
