Hello:

Here is a description of kind of what I would like to do. Any help on how I would start doing this for an existing app?

(about Android 4.2 Super Vision) As I mention below the key is that this is not simply a screen zoom, but actually allows the controls to be accessed, too. Again, this is so I can migrate my desktop app to one of the new Windows tablets (I would need the full OS).

Thanks!
Chuck

That's why I've been very pleased by the new deeply integrated
zoom/pan magnification function included with JB 4.2.  After being
enabled, which you can do via Settings->Accessibility->Magnification
gestures -- you can triple-tap virtually anywhere in the Android
environment (except the keyboard and notification panel, I believe)
and instantly magnify the current screen.  You can then pan around and
change the zoom level by touch, and drop back to normal view with
another triple-tap.  It's extremely well implemented -- kudos to the
team responsible!

Hi, All:

I have an application which uses the full screen and am looking at the possibility of moving it to one of the new Windows 7/8 tablets which have the same resolution as the typical LCD monitor (about 1920 x 1080), but obviously the size is about 10-11" vs 20+ inches.

For some forms this will be fine, but for touch issues where the controls of the form need to be a minimum size so a finger can initiate a touch reaction, I have been wondering about a runtime screen zoom function that actually scales the form up by 2-4 x, not as a visual, but as a functioning form. I would like the user to move around on the form by dragging his finger/stylus to cause a scroll effect in 2 dimensions.

Apparently there are ways to "zoom" a form but these appear to be visual only. I'm not sure of the terminology, but it sounds like I want to do is resize the form and its controls at runtime. Yes?

What is the best way to do this quickly, even on a form with a number of controls?

Thank you,

Chuck Belanger
