ZOOM ZOOM Image Zoom Function Usage This function changes the zoom factor associated with the currently active image. It is a legacy support function only, and thus is not quite equivalent to the zoom function from previous versions of FreeMat. However, it should achieve roughly the same effect. The generic syntax for its use is zoom(x) where x is the zoom factor to be used. The exact behavior of the zoom factor is as follows: - x>0 The image is zoomed by a factor x in both directions. - x=0 The image on display is zoomed to fit the size of the image window, but the aspect ratio of the image is not changed. (see the Examples section for more details). This is the default zoom level for images displayed with the image command. - x<0 The image on display is zoomed to fit the size of the image window, with the zoom factor in the row and column directions chosen to fill the entire window. The aspect ratio of the image is not preserved. The exact value of x is irrelevant.
