Bill,

Do you mean something like the accessibility magnifier in Windows, or do you want more functionality?

Try Programs>accessories>Accessibilty>magnifier for a simple magnifier. I find it quite useful for image detail. It also cites a web address for other magnification utilities (haven't tried them),

cheers,
Bob

Subject: Live lens cursor?


Does anyone know how to approach building a "live lens cursor" tool  
for ImageJ that would give a magnified view of the region of an image  
directly beneath the cursor as it moved? I've seen this in various  
(unremembered) places in the past, and would like to try to implement  
it for use in an ImageJ plugin. A search of the list archive didn't  
bring up anything on this, and I haven't found anything via a quick  
web search.

I'm not sure whether this would be based on some sort of dynamic  
"layering", or whether it would entail creating an actual cursor. A  
fall back would be to create a dual image that shows dynamic  
magnified content.


Thanks for any thoughts, java code, or pointers.
