Magnifier, Loupe - hold in place

Post by hannes_hab »

I think there was a trick to hold the magnifier in place and make adjustments (normally the magnifier moves with the mouse) - but I don't know how - I think it was in an early ASP forum (things got lost) or even bibble forum - does anybody know?

1. point the magnifier at the place you want see magnified
2. press the [Ctrl] key
3. move the cursor to the plugin (adjustment) pane while holding the [Ctrl] key
4. release the [Ctrl] key

Now you can do adjustments, switch the plugin tabs, etc. The magnifier follows the cursor, but it displays the fixed part of the image (selected in the 1st step), until you move the cursor over the image.

Not very convenient, but still better than nothing...

Good luck,
