Zooming in

Overview

 

Zooming in, drilling down . . . whatever label may be in vogue tomorrow, displaying information in layers helps minimize the clutter on your monitor. Here are two examples of how zooming in works in Morning Flight.

The Mini-Zoom

 

In the Quote View window, you get a mini-zoom version of the quote without ever having to leave the window. The product description, paper name, ink colors, and all three quantities and prices are always in full view in the black panel. The display updates as you browse. If you do need to see more, click the Camera button to open the full zoom window.

Whenever you see the cursor turn into a Camera, as it does here in the Paper panel of the Full Zoom window, click to drill down for a closer look. Once there, click the up arrow to view all three quantities.

The Magic Wand

 

Here we're not drilling down, we're drilling sideways. Instead of presenting the same information in more detail, we're looking at it from a different angle. When you pass the cursor over the "Run" area, it morphs into a magic wand and the display changes from impressions per hour to total minutes, from press speed to how long it takes to print.
