Magic zoom in graphic

At the link below there is this very cute graphic thingie
where you scroll your mouse over the photo of the bike and it
magnifies the bit you are scrolling over to show full detail. There
is something similar in Adobe Bridge where you scroll your mouse
over the thumbnail to see that piece at 100% size. I have a client
who is interested in doing this on a web site. It is an engineering
company and they want to do it with photos of machinery. It would
be very much like it works on the bikes on the link below.

Is it hard to do this? Is there some application I could get
that would help me do it? I am in New Zealand. I am used to GoLive
but trying to switch across to DW, but hoping I could do this on
either software.

Aperture Graphics and Brushes issue

I've been having a lot of trouble with (what seems like) my graphics using aperture 3.2.1.
Firstly, when applying brushes and zoomed, my graphics go crazy with horizontal and vertical lines. (See screenshot):
Secondly, when resizing a brush, the brush size jumps from small to very big with no middle size, even though the slider is moving. It's like the data for those sizes is missing somehow.
1-I've done all troubleshooting steps including rebuilding my library
2-I tested my library in a different user (same issue)
3-I exported a few and tried it on a different mac (it works fine!)
4-I uninstalled and reinstalled aperture completely (still no dice)
I'm also wondering if this could be a hardware issue with my graphics card (although I doubt it because the graphics only go crazy INSIDE the aperture window)
I'm going to try to do a clean install of my OS but I'm wondering if other people have had this issue. Any suggestions?

Same thing here. It only happens when using brushes while zoomed in. Funny thing is it just started doing it out of the blue about 3 days ago .. no new software install, no new updates and I work completely off external drives so it's not like I've had any major changes. It's rather annoying though

Does DW offer coding for zoom capability?

At this address there's sophisticated zoom coding but it apparently only applies to wordpress documents (wpmu.org/magic-zoom-uses-fancy-javascript-to-zoom-images-on-your WordPress...).
Does DW offer such capability?

I upgraded DW to a test version of CS5.5. I downloaded the widget browser. I opened the jqzoom widget in the browser, which widget provides the zoom capability I'm seeking.
I then created a test page, and copied the widget code onto the page, in its respective <head> and <body> sections. This includes the following code placed in the head section:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<title>jqzoom : Position- bottom 1</title>
<script type='text/javascript' src='js/jquery-1.3.2.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='js/jquery.jqzoom1.0.1.js'></script>
<link type='text/css' href='css/jqzoom.css' rel='stylesheet'/>
I then tried the zoom function. Nothing happened.
In the CS5.5 split view, three 'tabs' (or 'separate elements' ???) appear among others, along the top of the page. These are: jquery-1.3.2.js, jquery-jqzoom1.0.1, and jqzoom.css. If I click on any of these 'elements' I get the message, that the element is "...not on the local disc." If I then click on the word "get" next to this statement, I get the message that element is, "...not in a defined site".
So, while these 3 'elements' -at least the copied coding from the widget as noted above, are all within the <head> section of this test document where it is said they should be, they're not "on the local disc" and/or not "in a defined site". So, what does this mean?
This jqzoom widget only includes two tabs: 'live view' and 'code'. My assumption is that I would just copy the code to the page, and that within CS5.5 the functionality of the copied code would be handled. Obviously, I'm wrong. What to do?

Switching from Flash to Flash Catalyst/Flex

For the last few years I have been developing applications for project reporting. To explain this in simplest terms, my clients give me hundreds of reports and supporting documents, graphics, videos, etc. which I then condense and reorganize into a presentation/application in Flash. The project is then published as an .exe to be burned to CD ROM or DVD along with any supporting files and is then distributed to project stake holders, investors, etc.
I'm considering the possibility of a switch from Flash to Flash Catalyst/Flex and want to outline what my needs are, here in the forum, in hopes that others now using Catalyst/Flex can help me decide if this is an appropriate move.
Features needed:
1. Basic animation, transitions, etc.
2. Full Navigation (up to 3 levels) for up to 300 slides.
3. Keyboard navigation (PageUp/PageDown) to navigate sequentially through the entire presentation.
4. Linking into other applications and documents - Word, Excel, Power Point, etc.
5. Full Screen Mode
6. Slide Show Mode
7. Search Features
8. Slide sharing (via email)
9. Video and audio w/controls
10. Pan and Zoom w/controls (panning and zooming of graphics and .swf files)
11. Scrolling (scrolling of text, graphics and .swf files)
12. Interactive forms
Can anyone please comment specifically on these features and wether or not they are possible using Catalyst and/or Catalyst/Flex in combination.
Thank you all for any insight or suggestions.
John

With the exception of making fre-form animations (like a cartoon for example), everything you can do in Flash can be done in Flex considerably faster.
The downside is that Flex applications (especially ones designed in Catalyst) are generally larger, and consume more memory. Personally, I never publish anything made in Catalyst without optimizing it in Flash Builder first.
If the drop in operating performance isn't a deal breaker (most of the time you can't even notice it), then I would certainly consider moving to Flex going forward on new projects.

Pdf quality problem

I put my slides on-line for students in the form of pdf files. To conserve paper, I put four slides per page but the quality is terrible, much of the text is barely readable. The font size is large enough that there should be no problem (If I manually reduce the size of the slide to 1/4 it is still fine). ARe ther settings that control the quality that I can play with, or an alternate approach?
Thanks

This is very odd. I just made a test PDF of a document I create to help somebody with an anagram problem where it was anagramming all the text and they only want one phrase to anagram then the other after it. So I made some of the text a graphic object in Preview and replaced the Text text object, if that makes sense.
Not only is the PDF perfectly rendered to any scale/zoom, the graphic of the second phrase has been converted back to text that can be highlighted with the text selection tool in Preview and Adobe Reader. Almost as if it has OCRed it.
So to answer your questions, text should be vector based and therefore readable at any scale. I am guessing that 10mm below where you set the number of slides per page you have a check-box ticked for "Draft Quality Printout". The text will be bitmapped and terrible. Why it was programmed this way is best known to Apple, given that it would be using more file bytes than the postscript to render the text at full-resolution.

[RANT]Flash video playback

Full screen flash video playback is much smoother in my virtualized Windows XP(qemu-kvm) compared to my native Arch setup(Radeon 4350, open ati drivers). This is flipping crazy. Why Adobe, why!?

It's pretty much universally accepted that this is Adobe's fault for not putting enough of an effort into Flash for Linux. I with that agree to a large extent - for a start they need to enable hardware acceleration as a top priority. I am running an Nvidia ION on an Atom 330 with x64; now, this thing should be able to play fullscreen SD video regardless, hardware acceleration or not - yet fullscreen flash still kills it, which is a real disappointment and the only think that sometimes makes me wish I had taken the windows 7 option (and I've been using Arch for over 6 years!)
That said, I don't think it is fair to put all the blame in Adobes court. The writers of flash video players have to do some answering too. For example, here in the UK the BBC iplayer plays fine in full screen for me - nice and smooth, while the Channel 4 player is unwatchable. Likewise for lots of flash video on the Internet, some are good and some are bad - all Adobes fault? I think not (although I'll give then 80% of the blame).
Here's is a great hack as a workaround though... Ignore conventional wisdom, enable composite extensions and install compiz-complete. Once you have it up and running enable the 'Zoom Desktop' plugin. Now you can draw a window around your in-browser video and Compiz will magically zoom it to full screen, and it will remain completely smooth (this is sort of a hardware acceleration hack I suppose!).
The down side is that you cannot interact with the player while it is zoomed in, but it removes the problem of slow video completely.
Score!
Dan.

I HATE THE MAGIC MOUSE! Any suggestions for a solid alternative for graphics use?

I have the 27" Intel Based Mac and LOVE the machine...brilliant, beautiful, fast! I also LOVE the wireless keyboard...light, responsive, awesome! But I HATE the Magic Mouse...hate hate hate! I work with Adobe programs (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Mastersuite CS5) and the mouse control and scroll are all over the place. I need precision control. I need the mouse to stay where I want it to and scroll when I ask it and not scroll when I need to be zoomed in at 6400%.
Now, There HAS to be a good, solid user controlled wireless mouse that works well with the mac! Please HELP!!
Any input is greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

What is the problem with just using a good old fashioned WIRED mouse? When we spec computers for purchase for use by our graphic design, animation and digital photo student lab systems, we always go with a wired mouse.. Better control and more reliable operation are the reasons. The fact that they are less likely to "wander off" is another big plus for us.
We also go with wired, with numeric keypad, keyboards so we do not have to worry about batteries going down on either mouse or keyboard./ Yep, it is a step backward in technology but reliablity and ease of use trumps "bleeding edge" technology in this case.
If you want you can also have the Magic Mouse on the system but either shut off or stuck up in some corner of the desk where you won't hit it by accident. That way if you do decide you need the "touch pad" features, they are still available.
Message was edited by: Joe Pyrdek to add the paragraph about using both wireless and wired on the same system.

Magic Track Pad with Lion 10.7 and Safari zoom aA vs Pinch to zoom

Hi,
I enjoy a Mac Mini (early 2009) hooked to a 50 inch plasma and surf from my couch, stream etc... We browse with Safari 5.X and enjoyed the new Magic Track Pad with Snow Leopard. You could zoom / scale Safari with Snow Leopard beautifully, with a pinch out on the trackpad, same function as aA option on the browser task bar.
Now with Lion, the pinch to zoom feature zooms but doesn't scale the safari window the same way aA option used to. In lion a pinch out to zoom in will push a significant part of the browser screen off / out of view.
The aA option on the safari task bar scales the window, and keeps everything visible but larger, but now in Lion it is not available from the Magic Track Pad Gestures. The Button is still there on the browser but there is no option to access it from the track pad with a gesture.
How can I revert to the old way of zooming / Scaling a Safari web page with my Magic track pad in Lion?
Thanks,
H

You can see in that screenshot that a lot of browser.gesture.pinch prefs have an empty string as their value and thus won't have any effect.
You can restore some zoom feature by modifying the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page via the right-click context menu.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
You may want to toggle this pref (I don't know what effect this has):
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>

That model MBP gives you a choice of cards to use – one at a time. it is not designed for them to run in tandem - splitting up the workload.

Magic mouse zoom quit working

My magic mouse won't zoom all of a sudden, even in Safari...any clues?

Yes, I have had this problem ever since I upgraded to Yosemite. Resetting the PRAM does not work. I repeat, resetting the PRAM does not work. That is the only answer I have been given too. Apple needs to get a patch quick. This is an operating system issue!!!

Turning off CMD + SCROLL zooming with Apple Magic Mouse?

Scrolling with Apple's Magic Mouse is extremely sensitive in Fireworks, so sometimes when I use a keyboard shortcut that involves the command key and I accidentally leave it pressed for just a split second after I perform the shortcut and I scroll at the same time, Fireworks will recognize the held-down key as wanting to "scroll'n zoom" and will quickly zoom in way too far/far out, sometimes causing the program to hang for freeze. Has anyone else experienced this and would be able to explain it better? It happens way too much for me. :/

Hi
Same probem is here, suddenly pointer stopped to be active and no tracking at all. All buttons, gestures etc are performing well.
- paired / unpaired > no result
- replaced batteries > no result
- cleaned contacts inside mouse > no result
- cleaned laser > no result
Light is blinking only a few after mouse is connected, and completely stops to blink, while mouse buttons are working.
Tried to find solution on web, does not help much.
Any solution?
Thanks

Google Maps zooms with Apple magic mouse

Ever since I bought the Apple magic mouse, I've noticed that whenever I use Google Maps via my desktop Apple, the map will zoom without me telling it to in street view. This is INCREDIBLY annoying when trying to view a street or move across the map. Anyway one else encounter this issue? Anyone have a solution?

Hey Dogs 'n Front- I have the same problem- I've had a Magic Mouse for years and never had the zoom problem with Google maps up until maybe a year ago?It's actually a fairly common problem that even CNET had an article about it a few years ago- sadly the problem still exists. I have a MacBook Air as well and have no problem with the trackpad scroll zoom and Google Maps, seems the Magic Mouse is just too sensitive...

Why do vector graphics appear pixelated when zoomed in, isn't fireworks meant to support vectors?

I am new to using Fireworks, but I thought it would be great since it has both vector and bitmap support. However, when I work with vector tools and a vector image I imported from Illustrator, if I zoom into the image, it appears as though it's a bitmap. Also, if I were to resize the image down 25% and then bring it back up to a size similar to what it was at, it will look distorted and the quality will have changed? Why is this? I do this in Illustrator with no such results. I thought vectors should be able to be resized up, down, or up and down and they should look relatively the same. Any ideas, what is going on?
I have screenshots of this happening which I posted on a different forum. But if you want to see the screen shots, go here.

PLEASE HELP. Thanks in advance! I would really like to use fireworks, but with this issue I might have to use illustrator and ditch fireworks all together.

I realized Sitepoint wont let you see the screenshots without logging in (stupid)
Here is my graphic in illustrator:
Here is the graphic imported into Fireworks and you can see how bad it looks when I resize it.
You see how the starting image looks VERY different from the image after the resize. why?!?!?!?!?!??!?

Some graphics in a website cannot be scrolled, panned or zoomed in/out

http://professional.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903520204576480123949521268.html?mod=WSJ_Home_la...
the graphics in the above website does not respond to scrolling, panning or zooming gestures. Is there a way to make it happen? without that, major parts of the graphics cannot be viewed.
unfortunately this is a paid site so you may not be able to load it but i thought may be some of you may be subscribers.
thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

thanks, aandras.
in this art there is an interactive graphic which you can access either by 1) clicking on the graphic towards the middle of the article on the left side just above the picture of senator Reid, or 2) clicking on the tab near the start of the article labelled "interactive graphics".
for me, either way will load that page but the page is not scrollable, zoomable nor pannable. that page actually has a set of 10 different graphics you can select via buttons in the left. oddly these buttons work and actually switch the graphics. but most of them are too large to be displayed on the playbook screen which therefore have to be scrolled/panned but that does not work for me. the page, other thank those buttons, acts as if it is frozen.
