Dear list, I am developing an application for playing videos, whose one of the main functions is zooming the video to let the user observe the details if the video frame size is large (it will be used to play the videos recorded by the dash camera).
I have created a 'prototype' of a video view that allows to perform this (the video is being zoomed with a scroll wheel, and zooming "occurs" where the mouse cursor is - i am setting the anchor point in that place), along with "panning" the video frame (the frame can be dragged) - mainly using core animation. What I am asking here: I am not sure how usable such a control is. The main problem (as for me) is that the user can drag the video frame out of sight. He can zoom the video the way it moves out of sight. When the window is being zoomed, the frame doesn't get zoomed up till the moment the user ends zooming (because I am resetting the video layer size to the view size in -viewDidEndLiveResize. I don't know how to make the video layer resize together with the view - I tried to do this in -drawRect, checking the "isBeingResized" flag, but doing so kills all the animation - if you try to resize the view you can see that the "Zoom" label moves with animation, but the video frame wouldn't do so..). Could you please give some advices how to make the control more usable and solve these problems? I do not post the source code, it is a bit bulky for the list, although I may post it here if needed.. The test application can be found here: http://rghost.net/40542098 Thank you!
