Increase zooming smoothness

[Larry]

Hi Krein,

Another minor request: in making html maps for documentation, it would be useful to be able to have one or two extra 'stops' when setting the zoom, so that you can show exactly the area you want, but nothing extra. I've set the Zooming Smoothness slider to the far right, but even more smoothness would be nice.

The html maps have been a big hit by the way! Once the topo.jpg file is generated, I've been opening it in my photo editor and annotating it. I've annotated some of the pics too. Then I open the index.html page in my html editor and tune it up to suit -- adding suitable text to the 'description', changing the title etc. Works great!

This is a good point.  The zooming smoothness setting actually just changes how many intermediate steps are redrawn -- it doesn't change how much a "+" or "-" key actually changes the zoom by.

This is a setting that I've thought about adding for some time.  It needs to be there.

For PhotoFusion I find that the zoom tool (drawing a box with it) is the most useful to get the view I want.  

Thanks.

Thanks Krein, using the zoom tool had not occurred to me. Now how could that happen?   '>

For my html maps, I want the largest topo map I can get at the highest resolution that still shows all the photo icons. Sometimes one tap of the + key zooms in too far, obscuring some icons, and then one tap of the - key zooms out farther than I would like.

Another solution might be to have a 'use maximum detail' and give a setting for the topo and aerial image sizes like you have for the exports.
