Package mars.tools

Class ScreenMagnifier

java.lang.Object

mars.tools.ScreenMagnifier

All Implemented Interfaces:

MarsTool

public class ScreenMagnifier
extends Object
implements MarsTool

Handy little tool to magnify a selected section of the screen by a given scale and display it. The screen image snapshot will be of the screen pixels beneath the tool's frame. The scale can be adjusted. The image is displayed in the tool's scrollable panel. You can highlight items on the image using the scribbler (hold down mouse button and move it on the image). The magnification scale adjustment is on the tool's window, but other settings can be modified on a button- triggered dialog. It will capture the contents of the underlying MARS graphical user interface, but NOT the contents of other Mars Tools frames.
