CImageView:GetZoom

The GetZoom method returns the image magnification, or "zoom" factor in the CImageView window.

Syntax

nZoom = CImageView:GetZoom()

nZoom is an integer zoom number. See Remarks, below.

Remarks

Mira displays images with the following zoom factors: 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. This is encoded as the integer zoom numbers -16, -8, -4, -2, 1, 2, 4 , 8, and 16. The value ofnZoom must be one of these integer numbers.

Example

Suppose a CImageI is displayed in a CImageView objectV. The following script retrieves the zoom factor and redisplays the image at twice the current zoom.

nZoom = V:GetZoom()	-- retrieve the current zoom factor
if nZoom == -2 then	-- bump zoom=-2 up to zoom=1
nZoom = 1
elseif nZoom < 0 then	-- for example: turn -4 into -2
nZoom = nZoom / 2
else
nZoom = nZoom * 2	-- for example: turn 2 into 4
end
V:SetZoom( nZoom )	-- redisplay with 2x the previous zoom.
