With apologies to Reverse Flash, and with thanks to Ian Thomas Healy (check out his super-hero novels!) for poking me, I’ve just released a new “Zoom” feature for HeroMachine 3. I’ve long been frustrated on how hard it can be to get a close-up view of a particular part of an illustration to fine-tune it. Now you can:
- Ctrl + scroll wheel — zoom in/out, centered on cursor position
- Trackpad pinch — smooth zoom in/out
- Right-click canvas — context menu with Zoom In, Zoom Out, and Reset options
- Drag empty canvas while zoomed — pan around the artwork
- Zoom indicator pill (bottom-right) — shows current zoom %, click to reset to 100%
- Touch pinch — two-finger pinch to zoom on touch devices (when no item selected)

Enjoy, and let me know what you think of the new feature!

Now that’s the feature I’ve been waiting for!
