Zooming by scrolling?

Hi,
In many CAD software, one could zoom in and out by scrolling mouse when CTRL key is pressed. I tried this and it was not available in Freehand.
Then instead, how could quick-zooming be achieved?
Bob

Not available in FreeHand. Never was. Never will be.
To zoom in closer, drag the Zoom tool around the area you wish to view or use Space+Cmd (Mac). To zoom out press Space+Cmd+Option (Mac).
I have to ask why you are investing all this time to learn discontinued software. It seems your time would be better spent learning currently developed software. Illustrator, CorelDraw or ACDSEE Canvas might meet your needs. Canvas is particularly aimed at technical illustrators.

How do I get my mouse to zoom when scrolling?

I've set my mouse to zoom while scrolling in preferences but it doesn't work. Any fixes?

Hi Mike
Bit of a verbose answer but I have included a lot of useful information for you which as a newcommer to Macs you will find useful. Make a note of the webpages as you may need to refer to them in the future.
To find any downloads normally if you look at the top of this screen you will see "Downloads" click on that and you will see all those available - but make sure you get the right ones for the Intel. If you click on the description it will take you to an information page for that particular download where you can also download the update.
The Combo update is a complete overwrite of the system files if you want more details use the HELP in FINDER and enter "update" at the bottom of the page is a section called Support Articles look at the one called
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (combo)
When you use Software Update it updates using the Delta version i:e updates just the files changed from the previous release currently on your machine 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 etc. that is why you need to check again after Software Update completes to ensure you get a complete update with the latest apps etc
Using the Combo ensures all files for the OS are updated and can therefore clear out little wrinkles that can appear from time to time as the machine is used
Not all Firmware is updated by Software Update which is why you sometimes get a message saying you need a firmware update even though you have just used Software Update. They need to be checked separately see
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303880 Intel Macs
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117 older Macs and which do not support OS 10.3 or 10.4
Before doing any updates to any machine there are steps everyone should take and MHunter has done an excellent job in preparing this post
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=668278&tstart=15
If you are using Safari - open Preferences and in "General"
"Save downloaded files to:" "Desktop"
Uncheck "Open safe files after downloading"
Close preferences
When download finishes open the image (double click) and follow the instructions it will install the system files.
Just leave it to do its job

"Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" is broken

Hello,
Since updating to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion this morning, the "Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" feature is broken.
In the mouse control panel the checkbox for "Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" is definitely checked. The default Control ^ key is selected. I verified I'm hitting the correct key on the keyboard using the keyboard viewer.
I've tried using this with 2 finger scrolling on my trackpack as well. I've also tried turning off most of the trackpack geustures.
I tried searching these forums prior to posting and found replies telling people with various different situations to turn this feature off. I want it on. I use it constantly.
I have a MacBook Pro Aluminum 13-Inch Mid 2010
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511)
Any advise would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Hello. Original poster here. I can confirm a few things after observing for a few days and trying stuff.
1) The Universal access fixes did nothing. I set & reset those settings til I was blue in the face.
2) I tried a "Repair Permissions" with the Disk Utility. No luck.
3) It works intermitently. After sleeping sometimes it works. After plugging into my external monitor sometimes it works on the external monitor but then if I unplug it won't work again. After a reboot somtimes it works, then after sleeping stops working. Kinda strange. When it works it works from both my external USB mouse and the trackpad, so I don't think it's the hardware.
I don't have Time Machine configured - been using Carbonite, but they're not compatible with Lion so might have to get Time Machine running anyway - but it's not a fix per se, since this oughta work all the time.

Zoom with scroll wheel?

The zooming with scroll wheel feature stopped working after I installed MAC OS X 10.6. Anyone have a suggestion about how to get that feature working again? Thanks.

Okay...did that too. We'll see. I appreciate your help.
Having a major printing problem though. Looks like I am going to be doing a lot of testing soon because the presents for my Canon iP6700D don't work like they did two days ago. Canon has a new driver which I believe is the problem. Maybe I can get back to the other one that worked like a charm. -- Sandy

Link Zoom and Scroll Bar

Hello
I'm using Labview 8.0 an I have a small expirence with Labview
I got 5 Waveformcharts with different ranges, is it possible to link the zoom an scroll bar function, so that i could zoom in one graph an the other will change dynamicly like in Diadem "dynamic Zoom" and is it
possible to control the visible area of the 5 charts with one scroll bar?
Thanks

Hello Densel,
I searched for an easy implementation with the help of a property node, what I found is attached in my VI. It is just a solution to change the axes properties of x and y for one chart, but it should also works with more charts.
Check my result, hope it helps you!
Günther.

Chrome zooms when scrolling

Don't know if anyone else has this problem, but scrolling down pages in chrome results in random zooming unless I'm using the very tip of my finger. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you for the feedback. Unfortunately it didn't work. Anyone else have this problem?
Pocketnow.com also had the issue when they reviewed the phone: http://pocketnow.com/2014/02/13/sony-xperia-z1-compact-review

Zoom:Use Scroll wheel with Modifier Keys to Zoom

Help! Since the 10.6 update from 10.4.11, I can no longer zoom in and out by holding Command while moving scroll ring on my Kensington Expert Mouse. I have tried other modifier keys to no avail.
I suspect a conflict, but do not know where to fix it. When in Firefox 3.5.2., Command plus scroll ring zooms the active window nicely. Any ideas or should I provide feedback to Apple or both? Thanks! DJ

The default key for scrolling zoom is not Command but Control. To change this, go to System Preferences —> Universal Access and click on the Seeing tab. In the Zoom pane, click on the Options button, and in the sheet that drops down, select the text box at the bottom, highlight the character there, then press the modifier key you prefer.

Elan SmartPad and TrackPoint zooms when scrolling in L430

Whenever I scroll using my SmartPad: either with the "Edge Scroll" or the "Two-Finger Scroll" or when I scroll using the TrackPoint+its middle button, my web browser zooms in/out. Just as if Ctrl was being pressed. I have deactivated all the zooming gestures of the SmartPad, so "pinch zoom" is not the problem.
This is an incredibly annoying bug and it makes the ThinkPad brand lose credibility.
Is there any way to fix it?

Photoshop 5 choppy during zoom with scroll wheel

So after a agonizing weekend of talking to Adobe suport to get photoshop installed because they sent me the wrong version and horrible customer service (thanks adobe), I finally get to start using photoshop and it's just buggy as heck. Wierd jerky motions and a lot of spinning wheels. I have a macbook pro early 2010 3.06 processor with 6gb of ram on os x 10.6.8.
Well the photoshop is choppy and horrible when using the scroll wheel to zoom. I opened the same document in CS4 and it was fine smoothly scrolling in and out as slow or fast as I wanted. CS5 is jerky zooming 20% every time I move my finger on the mouse. It is driving me crazy!@!
I adjusted all of the openGL setting, memory, etc, etc and nothing helps. I can't imagine that photoshop would be worse when it is supposidly an "upgrade", but I'm so pissed off that I might just go back ot CS4 until I get this figured out.
Another Adobe product that is buggy as heck, but this has been around for almost a year, so please tell me how to fix it. Is there an update i don't kow about or SOMETHING?!?!
I did a search, but when i foudn someone with the same issue, it was not answered...
Adobe, you need to make better products.

It's not performance, it's a missing feature and adjustments (if I can get it to work right) I need to have the selection tool active and be able to zoom wiht the scroll wheel! (even if the srolling is choppy) I need it to zoom in and out, with the scroll wheel, while the select tool is active!
The scrubby zoom is smooth and it's nice, but the choppy scroll wheel zoom and no zoom when the select tool is active are deal breakers for this software! You guys try to cram as much stuff in the program as possible, but if you take things away, it pissed people off. If there is a way to to scroll zoom on while i have the select tool down, then tell me.

Disable phone site zoom and scrolling?

I am just trying to design a phone site.
It seems to fit on my Samsung S4 in Chrome.
But I can still zoom into the mobile site version and that makes it possible to scroll horizontally to the right (o the left is not possible)
and then the positioned elemnts seem to slide and you can see the unaesthetic right endign of the page.
I have no elements outside the mobile layout. Also tryied some HTML Codes on my phone Master Page, I found on the web.
But nothig seems to help. If I cannot solve ths, a mobile site inMuse seems nothimg more than a bad joke!
Can somenone help me please?

Thanks, but I tried these codes before and none of them worked for me!
I tried both codes on my master page, but it is still possible to zoom and then scroll to the right.
And after zoomng back, my page image isn't at the same position as it was before!
So if it is not possible to solve this, then mobile phone sites in muse is nothing more than a joke! (Sorry!)

Zoom and scroll act wierd

Hi!
I just recently came along a wierd bug in iPhoto '11. When I zoom in a picture and use the trackpad (MacBook Pro 13") to scroll the enlarged picture, the scroll kind of move random over the picture. I can't control it and can just sit and wait until it has stopped to proceed working. But not neccecarily in the correct place of the picture...
Does anyone know if this can be fixed? Or do I need to wait for an upgrade of iPhoto? I have the latest installed.
Jonas

You're meant to use the wee navigation pane to scroll across the zoomed shot.

Missing zoom timeline scroll bar

Since yesterday the zoom scroll bar has disappeared that should be underneath the timeline on Premiere Pro CS6. I cannot find how to turn it on again, I would be grateful for any help please.

Hi mike_ben.
Welcome to the forums.
Please try to reset the workspace ( Window>workspace>reset current workspace ), to its original layout and check if it fixes the issue.

Zooming and Scrolling issue

Background:
So I created spark Scroller this way:
<s:Scroller id="continuousViewScroller"
height="100%"
width="100%"
horizontalScrollPolicy="auto"
verticalScrollPolicy="auto"
visible.ContinuousView="true"
visible="false">
<s:Group id="continuousView"
width="100%"
height="100%" clipAndEnableScrolling="true">
<s:layout>
<s:VerticalLayout horizontalAlign="center"
gap="10"
paddingTop="10"
paddingBottom="10"/>
</s:layout>
</s:Group>
</s:Scroller>
I add multiple <s:Group> objects to the "continousView" object. Each object is approximately of size 1500 X 1900 and I have around 700 of them. Each of this group object, I paint an image, whenever this group object comes within the viewport.
var vLayout:VerticalLayout=continuousView.layout as VerticalLayout;
vLayout.fractionOfElementInView(_index);
I am facing a couple of problems:
a) When I zoom in (Set all the object.scaleX=zoomValue, scaleY=zoomValue) and zoom out on the child objects. The scroller moves up and down. So the current page out of the view. How can I prevent the scroll thumb to move, when I am adjusting the zoom?
b) Secondly, this approach of loading 700 placeholders (s:Group object) is very slow. How can make it more fast and efficient?

ItemRenderer with virtual layout works pretty well. My performance has improved significantly now. I can easily scroll pages in and out of view.
Here is a trouble. I need to add few elements to each page. Like buttons and all. Sometimes, the ItemRenderer is not refreshed as soon as it comes into view. How can I force it load everything I want?
Steps when the data property is set into the ItemRenderer:
a) A bitmap image binary is converted to bitmap data. (I am caching all the bitmap binaries. But only convert to full blown BitmapData, when item renderer code is executed
b) Add few controls to the renderer.
c) Once the bitmap data is created. refreshPage method is called. Should I implement this inside overriden updateDisplayList method?
            private function refreshPage():void
                drawImage();
                addButtons();
                addLayers();
            private function drawImage():void
                pageCanvas.graphics.beginBitmapFill(_bitmapData, null, false, true);
                pageCanvas.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, _bitmapData.width, _bitmapData.height);
                pageCanvas.graphics.endFill();

Random zooming and scrolling

My system will randomly zoom and or scroll. This is not in Safari – it happens in Indesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects. Zooming seems totally unpredicatable. Scrolling – that is suddenly I'm being scrolled to somewhere way off to the side of my page, happens mostly when I'm dragging items around – usually when also holding shift or otherwise using smart guides for precise placement. Also often when I release them these items will suddenly jump to somewhere else. I use a Magic Mouse – Every single mouse click / scroll / zoom / swipe / click-somewhere-you-never-thought-of-on-the-mouse / swipe-with-11-fingers feature I can lay my hands on has been turned off. It's annoying, frustrating and really just downright crappy. I expect better from my Apple products. Does anyone have any suggestions / fixes ? (ideally not 'get a corded mouse' ). Thanks.

Try another Mouse, even a cheap USB mouse... as a test.

Controlling zoom with scroll effect

I really like the scrolling zoom effect on this site (first scroll effect): http://www.discovershadow.com
I would love to see something similar included in muse.
That is all.

Okay...did that too. We'll see. I appreciate your help.
Having a major printing problem though. Looks like I am going to be doing a lot of testing soon because the presents for my Canon iP6700D don't work like they did two days ago. Canon has a new driver which I believe is the problem. Maybe I can get back to the other one that worked like a charm. -- Sandy
