PanZoom

DESCRIPTION

The PanZoom Slider adjusts the way a three dimensional application is viewed, much as in the way the view through a camera may be changed. The zoom slider at the bottom moves the view either closer or farther from the application. The relative zoom is printed on the first line of the pad. The pan slider moves in two directions and acts like moving a camera in the plane perpendicular to the line of sight. In keeping with the camera analogy, the viewer moves in the same direction as the slider and therefore the object appears to move in the opposite direction. The relative view is given on the first two lines of the pad. The sliders will move to the cursor location when the left mouse is depressed and will follow the cursor while the left mouse is held down. The rectangular boxes are used to step incrementally through the panning and zooming.
