>Does anyone know how to approach building a "live lens cursor" tool

>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

>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.
