Zooming Out- Panning to Centre Problem

Is there a way to zoom out without being panned towards the centre? I'm working on the corner of an image and occasionally zoom out to see it in context but the view flies towards the centre so I have to pan back again.

Yeah that's hard to do and frustrating in photoshop elements.
(in the full version of photoshop it's much easier by using the bird's eye view)
It depends on how big you want to see the image when zoomed out but the navigator might do.
(Window>Navigator)
Or you could create a new view of your image (Window>Images>New Window) and either have it stay on top by making your zoomed in image a tab and the new window a floating document
or switch to the zoomed out image and back using Ctrl+Tab.
Whatever you do to one image will show on the other.
In case none of the above works in your version, what version of elements and operating system?

Problems zooming out with a Flash Banner

I have created a Flash banner for the home page of my website. Here is the link to the page I am working on: http://adirondackvic.org/CSSTest9July2012-2.html
When I zoom in to increase the size of the web page, the Flash banner rescales automatically. However, when I zoom out, to decrease the size of the web page, the Flash banner does not automatically rescale. It remains the same size and you have to hit the refresh button to get it to rescale to fit the newly resized page.
Is there a fix for this? I searched the forum and the web and have not found an answer. I put a question on this in another forum, but received no responses. I found some discussions of the issue on the web and on this forum, but I was not able to figure out how to incorporate the suggestions into my page. I tried changing the scale from exactfit to showall, as recommended, but that created a problem with the appearance of the page. (The banner no longer fit properly into the header window.) I also tried (as recommended by one of the entries in this forum) to change width="100%" height="100%" or width="100%" height="auto". This fixed the problem for Internet Explorer, but then the entire banner disappeared in Firefox.
Please help! I am at my wit's end.... Thank you. ellen
Here is the relevant code:

Create Interactive Zoom and Pan (in out, left, right)

Hello Flash Forum,
I have been checking the forum for ideas and suggestions on
how to implement an interactive zoom and pan on an image. I would
like the user to be able to drag a "magnifing glass" over an image,
and then zoom in (or out) on the area in the magnifing glass, using
the mouse wheel. How might I go about creating this effect? Or, the
easier way, steal someone's code who has implemented this kind of
functionality.
Thanks

I am sorry but I do not understand.
I am not a programer .I have not idea about SDK, how it works neither how to install it.

Smart Zoom Problem? Safari keeps zooming OUT.

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've had a problem with Smart Zoom. Using a Magic Mouse, I'm aware that it's a double tap to zoom in and another to zoom out. I actually like this feature and use it frequently enough that I don't want to have to turn it off to solve my problem.
The issue is that pages seemingly randomly zoom OUT and the text becomes very small. I do not know what gesture is doing this and it happens ALL the time. If I double tap, it zooms in, but it is the enlarged zoom in, as if I had done it from the normal text size. I have to hit cmd+0 to get it back to normal. It's become very annoying and I can't seem to find any info on it; everything out there is about zooming in, not out.
Thanks.
Safari 6.0
OS X 10.8.0

This is a definitely a problem and I've now not only noticed it happen on 2 macs but actually waited and monitored until I finally observed it happening WITHOUT ANY MOUSE CONTACT. Having now witnessed it in two different locations with two macs and two mice, it certainly isn't absent-minded tapping!!
I wonder if the mice have a static problem or are just oversensitive even to something coming near.
And btw this only started when I on one occasion upgraded to and on another bought Mountain Lion. It's quite random.

Can't pan (hand tool) when zoomed out

Hi,
1. make a document
2. zoom out so you can see the boundary of the canvas
3. try to pan using the "hand tool" -> cant pan, canvas stays in middle
4. - zoom in just enough so the boundary of the canvas exceeds your viewport -> can pan now (but when you zoom out abit after panning to the side, it pops back to middle again)
- OR rotate the zoomed out canvas just so one of the corners exceeds your viewport -> can pan also (but when you reset rotation after some panning, it pops back to middle again)
Lets say i want to draw in the lower right corner of my canvas at a zoom which doesnt make the canvas exceed my viewport but at the same time i want to pan so i have that lower right part of the image near the middle of my screen (so its not lost under my layers window and also so i dont have to draw near the edge of my tablet) but i cant because canvas doesnt exceed my viewport vision.
To get around this so far ive been either rotating the canvas abit and drawing like that so i could pan or i flip the image or move my palettes to the other side for better access but its a mess so i usually resort to having a duplicate viewport for the same image on other monitor which i keep zoomed out to have a view of the whole composition and then paint sort of "blindly" in the first viewport with close zoom which lets me pan and paint somewhat near the middle of screen and watch the result in the second viewport. I was also thinking about making bigger canvas and drawing on a smaller part of it in the middle, but im already working at like 10k res and that would slow things down even more i guess.)
Am i just missing something? Or is there any better workarounds?

You could work in the fullscreen mode (press the F key) which allows panning of the document regardless of size.

Zoom out problem

helllo,
i have problem of image quality when i m doing the zoominh operation.
when i was doing the zoom out the quality of the image get blur..
i have nt getign the proper clear image..
bi = compat ? getCompatibleImage(zoomW, zoomH): new BufferedImage(zoomW,zoomH, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
          Graphics2D g = bi.createGraphics();
          g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING,RenderingHints.VALUE_RENDER_QUALITY);
          double scaleW = (double)(zoomW)/(double)(prev_width);
               double scaleH = (double)(zoomH)/(double)(prev_height);
               transAtZoom = AffineTransform.getScaleInstance(scaleW,scaleH);
               g.drawRenderedImage(src, transAtZoom);
this is my code through which i done zoom out..
plz help me in this matter.
Regards,
shruti.

Try changing the RenderingHint to
RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION
RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BICUBIC

FIrefox Browser ZOOM problem- When I press the 9 number key FIrefox zooms out and when I press a 0 number key Firefox zooms in

FIrefox Browser problem- Suddenly now when I press the 9 number key (or 6) FIrefox zooms out and when I press a 0 number key Firefox zooms in. This just started happening 2 days ago. I am using a Mac and I have the latest Firefox . No updates of any kind have occurred in the past 4-5 days, so I must have inadvertedly activated this.
How can I deactivate this?
Note to Mozilla support: Please do not close this thread- I believe that it most specifically pinpoints the actual problem
that I am facing, so hopefully I can find others with a similar problem (& solution!)
The older thread can be ignored/closed.

I'm having problems with the screen zooming out, extra large font, to the point of not being able to put in my access code or getting to settings. What is wrong?

My screen chooses to zoom out, out of the blue to the point that I can't access anything. It also does not respond to trying to shrink the screen with my hand motion.

Double tap the screen with three fingers to turn off zoom. If that doesn't work try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Then go to settings> general> accessibility> zoom> off.

Using scroll wheel with modifier key to zoom out is not working

I can't zoom out with the magnifying tool selected in all programs of the CS3 suite using the option key on a Mac. I can zoom in with no problem. I've been trying to figure this out for "8 hours" now!!!
I do have this checked in the system preferences and Photoshop preferences. I don't think this is considered a keyboard shortcut but I do have universal access checked and zoom out checked in the system preferences.
I searched this site and all of the internet looking for answers but can't seem to find much. I appreciate any help you can give. I'm way behind on my work today.
Thank you!

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.

How do I stabilize shimmering fine lines when zooming or panning?

I just completed an HD video that was exported in Standard Definition (SD) using Apple ProRes 422 codec. The video came out fine except when the clip of a JPG image zooms in or out using the zoom motion controls. The fine detail "shimmers" or "flutters", especially when zooming at a point when the image is nearly all the way zoomed out. (the fine detail is the smallest, then.) This is not a typical de-interlace problem where the whole image is highly erratic. The disturbance only happens on the fine detail in the JPG; the thicker lines are not affected. I applied a de-interlace filter and then separately applied a de-flicker filter. Neither of these filters had any effect. I was told by a highly regarded technician at our local access station who I would evaluate as an expert in FCP that this shimmering affect for fine detail was normal, especially in SD. HD, he said, will greatly reduce but will not eliminate it.
Does others have thoughts about this and possible solutions? Thank you

The flickering is an artifact of the two field structure of interlaced video. It is a result of very thin (often horizontal) elements that exist on one scanline as is common in text or titling. This can also be the case in images with great deal of detail with high contrast as well as when when you are engaged in pan/zoom moves on stills.
As the alternate fields play, the flashing element is essentially being turned on/off. The basic strategy is to get the element to exist over two scanlines so it is refreshed every time the field plays or to reduce the amount of contrast so the difference between ON and OFF is not noticeable.
Before you start any of these steps listed below, make sure you are viewing your material on an appropriate monitor. If you are working in an NTSC/PAL interlaced format (eg DV) you need an external TV monitor - not a computer screen. Without the appropriate device, you are playing blind.
Things to try (In increasing order of image degradation)
• (in FCP) field order>none
• (in FCP or Photoshop) reduce whites by 10% - reduces overly bright areas
• (in FCP) flicker filter - minimum
• (in Photoshop) motion blur>vertical> .2 - .5 pixels - blurs vertically only
• (In FCP or Photoshop) Gaussian blur> .2 - .5 pixels -blurs both horizontally as well as vertically
• (in FCP or Photoshop) deinterlace - throws away half the image and is generally not appropriate on scanned images
Remember: Unless you are viewing your work in the appropriate external NTSC/PAL monitor, you are playing blind. The computer monitor only shows you a proxy image.
One final thought, if you have slowed your material significantly, and have not used some sort of frame blending/optical flow processing, you may be simply duplicating frames to create the additional material to pad the playback. The flashing you see is the result of this.
good luck.

Mesh line artifact movement upon zooming in and zooming out of composition

I'm having a problem with my puppet tool in my After Effects composition–I'm getting this strange mesh line artifact. The layers have been imported from an Illustrator file. The boy has six puppet pin points. Hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, neck and head. The actual animation of the puppet looks great, however, the problem arises with the zooming in and zooming out and panning over. I'm zooming in and panning over to the boy with a camera layer and null object layer before the puppet animation and then zooming out and panning away from the boy when it is over, and it's as if the mesh outline is following my null object layer during the pan and zoom... The boy is not on a pre-comp, and I tried to put in pre-comp to see if it made a difference but it does not. I also tried expanding the mesh but it doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

I'm having a similar problem. I have an illustrator file that I have a position and rotation change (to have the hand fly in), then the puppet tool mesh to have the pointer finger move to dial the numbers on the phone. I have tried non-pre-comped and pre-comped. Both produce the same results. In the first picture you can see that the mesh doesn't change position/rotation with the pre-comp. They seem to stay where I originally placed them. And where the hand flies in and moves over the mesh, that artifact is generated. I have tried expanding the mesh and making the pre-comp layer 3d.
It's rather frustrating, and I haven't found anybody solving this problem out here on the interwebs.
***OK OK. The only way I figured out to fix this was to make the illustrated hand the exact size I need it in Illustrator. Then I just don't make the layer "continuously rasterized".

Using mouse wheel to zoom and pan

I was wondering if there would be a way to make a javascript that would load at Photoshop's startup that would allow the user to zoom in and out using the mouse wheel (instead of using it for scrolling), and to use that same mouse wheel as a third button (when you push on the mouse wheel) or any third button on a three button mouse to pan in your image. I'm a 3ds max user and I love the way the navigation work in that software so it'd be great to be able to do that for Photoshop and Illustrator and get rid of those useless key shortcuts that we need to use to zoom and pan.
For the pan fonction, I guess if there was a way to simply say "when the third mouse button is pressed, press the space button, until the mouse button is released" it could work. But then it would force the panning to stop when the mouse goes offscreen, unlike in 3ds max where you can pan for whatever distance you want, even if you have the loop throught the screen ten times.
For the zoom function, if scolling up could simply "push" the keyboard shortcuts to zoom in/ zoom out it could work, but I don't know if that's possible. And then we'd have to disable the scrolling up and down in the document.
Anyways, if anyone has any ideas about that let me know! I've been looking for that for such a long time!

Not sure if I am misreading your post, but there is an option in the preferences that allows you to choose Zoom With Scroll Wheel. With this option active you hold the ALT key to scroll.
My Logitech mouse has a tilt wheel on it and this works fine in Photoshop. It doesn't loop through the screen but it does pan left and right with no problem. On this mouse the scroll wheel can also be pressed, and can be programmed to almost any key, I use for double click.
Forgive me if I've misunderstood your question.
