zoom - wander around magnified desktop

Author

       James  Macnicol  <james.macnicol@mailexcite.com>, 20-Nov-2000.  Much code was shamelessly stolen from the
       spotlight hack and a few others.

X Version 11                                   6.08 (10-Oct-2023)                                       zoom(6x)

Description

       The zoom program takes an image, magnifies it, and scrolls around it, fatbits-style.

       The  image  that  it manipulates will be grabbed from the portion of the screen underlying the window, or
       from the system's video input, or from a random file on disk,  as  indicated  by  the  grabDesktopImages,
       grabVideoFrames, and chooseRandomImages options in the ~/.xscreensaver file; see xscreensaver-settings(1)
       for more details.

Name

       zoom - wander around magnified desktop

Options

zoom accepts the following options:

       --window
               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       --root  Draw on the root window.

       --window-idnumber
               Draw on the specified window.

       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       --install
               Install a private colormap for the window.

       --visualvisual
               Specify  which  visual  to  use.   Legal  values are the name of a visual class, or the id number
               (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

       --delaymicroseconds
               Slow it down.

       --durationseconds
               How long to run before loading a new image.  Default 120 seconds.

       --lenses
               Instead of doing magnification we just copy  an  offset  region  from  the  original  image.   If
               lensoffsetx  <  pixwidth  (and similarly for Y) then consecutive regions will overlap, giving the
               effect of looking through an array of lenses.

       --pixwidthpixels
               Width of the magnified pixels.

       --pixheightpixels
               Height of the magnified pixels.

       --pixspacexpixels
               Amount of black space between magnified pixels (X direction).

       --pixspaceypixels
               Amount of black space between magnified pixels (Y direction).

       --lensoffsetxpixels
               Distance in X direction between consecutive copied regions (only effective when -lenses used).

       --lensoffsetypixels
               Distance in Y direction between consecutive copied regions (only effective when -lenses used).

       ENVIRONMENTDISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
               to get the  name  of  a  resource  file  that  overrides  the  global  resources  stored  in  the
               RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
               The window ID to use with --root.
