Yeh, ive gone sort of nuts on your forum lol.

I like doing detailed sections so a zoom in/zoom out function for smaller details would be great!

I don't think zoom is necessary in alchemy. Alchemy isn't about the finished product only the start, the base.

Alot of the abstracts ive been doing I think look pretty complete, simple pieces. But I dont know? It seems more people use alchemy for the base rather than finished products so it would only be me using it lmao

there is no where to present alchemy as base sketch tool. :|

I also vote for zoom in / zoom out, or scroll/pan, or both. Since Alchemy is vector-based, this makes sense to me. Imagine Alchemy as an infinite workspace tool where you can create many many abstract shapes or hugely fractal-like works.

I agree.

I've found a few shapes which I would have liked to build on, if I could pan down and keep drawing. Or if I could scale it down to a smaller part of the screen and keep drawing. I can save them and go to GIMP, but GIMP's brush engine is not Alchemy's brush engine.

just throwing my hat in for a zoom feature, or some sort of canvas manipulation (like move or on-the-fly rotation). i realize alchemy isn't really meant for "finished" work, but i am working of a small workspace and my available space is more limited than i'd like. a zoom feature would be very helpful even for the intended purpose of alchemy as an idea tool.

10x zoom means that at 0% zoom or no zoom, the image is at the same size you can see with the eye from the same spot and vantage point as the camcorder, and at 100% zoom or maximum zoom, the same image is now ten times larger than its original size (and part of the image may now be so big it went our of frame or out of view).

I also would like to have the ability to zoom and also pan. I find that this program has great potential as a powerful tool with many uses in my profession, Landscape Architecture. The ability to zoom and pan is all that is needed to make this a complete package for our use.
