Zoom Function

Move from full context to pixel detail with smooth zoom

PinLens supports 0.5x to 10x zoom with mouse gestures, viewport positioning, and zoom indicators, so UI reviews, debugging, and demos can stay focused on the details that matter.

Built for detail inspection

Continuous zoom

Switch from full layout context to pixel-level detail without constantly taking screenshots or opening design tools.

Mouse gesture control

Use familiar wheel or trackpad gestures to zoom in, zoom out, and keep navigation feeling natural.

Zoom indicators

Show the current magnification and viewport position in real time, so you do not lose context at higher zoom levels.

Works with design aids

Keep using rulers, grids, and guides while zoomed in to inspect spacing, edges, and visual proportions.
