Hi All,

I have been looking for a magnifying lens example and have found one only that I liked but it was so old the source could not be located. JavaFX has a nice script example (round glass) but that does not apply for my Swing app. There also was one from the swing hacks book but it does not work well when a jframe has a scrollpane in it becuase the demagnifying class uses the mouse move events for the Jfame and JFrame does not generate them.

So I need an example where I move a magnifying glass (round if possible) over a JFrame and it magnifies whatever I pass over.

Can someone please direct me to a possible solution?

Thanks,

-Tony

Thanks alexp! I will take a close look at this tonight.

Do you know if JXLayer is the JLayer in Java 7?

Hi alexp,

Since it looks like the swing labs and JXLayer projects were shelved years ago do you know where I can get version 4 of JXLayer in a jar and the latest source to MagnifyUI?

Thanks,

-Tony
