Need help with enlarging the desktop...
Hello.
I would like to make a program that zooms the desktop. I do not want to use a form and enlarge a picture of the desktop, but actually increase the size of the desktop and the video information that is sent to it, while maintaining a smaller window that is moved around to see the large desktop area.
I would like to have the same effect as the program "Bigshot Screen Magnifier" from Ai Squared http://www.aisquared.com/Products/BigShot/index.cfm. This program allows the user to magnify the desktop and then move around in the magnified area.
Any assistance or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Mr.Mike

that is not something I would try in VB. sounds more like a C++ or C# project.

I just ran into an example of stretching the desktop. I have not looked to see if it applies at all to what you want to do, but it may give you something to play around with:
