Overview

Implements a magnifying glass feature that allows users to view magnified portions of an image by holding the mouse over it. The feature is activated/deactivated using the Alt+A keyboard shortcut.

Changes

Feature Implementation

  • Added a new magnifying glass mode that displays a circular 128px × 128px magnifying glass overlay
  • The magnifying glass shows a 2x scaled view of the area under the cursor
  • Visual design includes a black 2px border around the circular magnifying glass for clear visibility

Keyboard Shortcut

  • Alt+A: Toggle magnifying glass mode on/off
  • When active, the cursor changes to a crosshair to indicate the mode is enabled
  • The magnifying glass follows the mouse cursor as it moves over the image

Mode Management

  • Magnifying mode is mutually exclusive with other editing modes (crop, draw, etc.)
  • Switching to other modes automatically deactivates magnifying mode
  • Clicking mode buttons (resize, crop, filter, rotate, paint) resets the magnifying flag

Technical Details

  • Added magnifyFlag state to ImageLayer class to track magnifying mode status
  • Implemented magnifying glass rendering using HTML5 canvas circular clipping and drawImage() scaling
  • Clean canvas restoration when the mouse leaves the canvas or mode is deactivated

Usage

  1. Open an image in the editor
  2. Press Alt+A to activate magnifying glass mode
  3. Move the mouse over the image to see magnified details
  4. Press Alt+A again to deactivate the mode
