zoom

	zoom
     
         To show a smaller area of an image at a higher
        magnification ("zoom in") or a larger area at a lower
        magnification ("zoom out"), as though using a zoom lense on a
        camera.
     
        Unlike in an optical system, zooming in on a computer image
        does not necessarily increase the amount of detail displayed
        since this is limited by what is actually stored in the image.
        Similarly, you cannot zoom out beyond the full size of the
        image.
