Zoom and Move Functionality for Pictures

StrongSteve · Jul 22nd 2004

Hi everybody!

I am displaying images in an imageBox. I use mode zoom, to fit their size to the imagebox.

Now i want to be able to zoom the picture manually and to move it around in the imagebox?

how do i start? anyone knowing a page explaining this?

Thx in Advance!

Stef,

AFAIK the Image Box is a control to display an image. What you are asking for is more akin to an image editor. I am not sure that the built in controls in Excel offer the flexability you want.

There may be a 3rd party Active X control that will do this.....or you could try to build one (or something that resembles one using a Userform). Not a job I would fancy taking on.

Cant help you more than that I'm afraid.

Regards

Hi Stef,

This example allows for image zooming and scrolling.

As Pesky says anything more than just viewing will be complicated.
If you want to see one apprach to actual image editing take a look at my button image editor. This though is restricted to a 32x32 pixel image.

Picture Viewer Finished...

Hi everybody!

Thanks to your help, I finally finished my prototype of a picture viewer.

Specifications:

Shows all pictures (*.jpg, *.gif, *.bmp) within a specified folder

Perhaps someone needs it!

Hope it helps!
Stef

P.S.: Sorry Tooltips are in German!
