Magnification feature in the Harmony Navigator secttion

Posted

When I add every chord possible to a palette, the name of chords get tinny tiny. Could a magnifing glass feature be considered for viewing these tinny chord names?

Nice idea. I'm afraid though this would be difficlt to implement on Windows.

IIRC, there are accesibility utilities for the Mac that work like a magnifying glass on the entire screen. Possibly there's a similar utility for Windows too?

Ooooh! That reminds me to try that. On Windows 7 its WinKey+PlusKey to zoom in WinKey+Minus key to zoom out.

Pixie on Mac gives you an adjustable zoom window where the mouse is currently pointing at.

I believe Pixie is installed with the Xcode Developer Tools. It is located in:
/Developer/Applications/Graphics Tools

:yeah: Glad I could be a reminder...

:toobad: This doesn't help me though... hahahaha I'm kidding of course.

However, my point is to do something like sonar. In Sonar this is a magnify feature in the note paynes window. This is built right in Sonar.

They must have a very capable graphics library under the hood. That's an advantage if one targets a single OS platform only.
