I was playing with 1d66.pdb and realizing again that in such cases the zoom maxes out too soon. Way back I had tried allowing for a larger maximum zoom setting, but that fails to do the job. Just now I implemented locally what I think is an ideal solution.
The problem is not that zoom can't go very high, it's that the perspective depth calculation "undoes" the zoom. So here's my idea: Starting with a certain zoom setting and going up to the maximum (200000), we scale out the perspective depth. If you think about it, once you have such huge zoom settings, the subtlely of perspective depth is probably not necessary. This work. The question is, what is that magic zoom setting where this effect kicks in? I've tried 5000 and 10000, and both work fine. Q: What is the highest zoom setting you use IN YOUR SCRIPTS? I'd like to set this above whatever those are so that scripts don't change. I'd like this number to lower, not higher, so that its a smoother transition. Too close to 200000 and what you see is a sudden increase in zoom capability as you approach the max. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
