Hi,

I think the problem is that it will still be very pixelated, it was when I was trying to do something similar. I came to the conclusion that the only way to do this properly was to work from the original image and scale everything to suit. It works great using my external, but I think it should work for what Roger wants using the technique I described earlier.

All the Best
Dave

Expanding on Xavier's idea - you could also copy the image into a group.

The group would need to have its locklocation set to true, and have
vertical and horizontal scrollbars.

After you copy the image, set its width and height to whatever
magnification you want. The only parts visible will be inside the group,
and you can use the scrollbars to move around to different parts of the
image.

Roger,

clone the image, then use the crop command. Then you can zoom it...

that should do the trick...

cheers
Xavier

 Subject: Magnifying a shrunken image --- without using imageData

 I have an image that is larger than the screenRect. I scale
 it to fit the window. Now I want to magnify a portion
 (100x100 pixels) in another image object.

 The problem is that if I put the text of (a portion of the
 imageData) into the magnified image, it is VERY pixelized. I
 need to access the original full resolution image for the
 magnified area.

 How can I accomplish this without using an external? Thanks
 for any suggestions.
