HI all,

I am trying to use java's affine transform method for my zoom - in and
zoom - out functions. This is a small piece of code that i've written
in my "mouseClicked" mouse lisetner function.

       AffineTransform tx = new AffineTransform();
       AffineTransformOp op;
       if (me.isMetaDown()) {
         tx.scale(0.5, 0.5);
       }
       else {
         tx.scale(1.5, 1.5);
       }
       op = new AffineTransformOp(tx,
                                  AffineTransformOp.
                                  TYPE_NEAREST_NEIGHBOR);
       try {
         bufImage = op.filter(bufImage, null);
       }
       catch (Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
       }

It's working fine. But the more I do the zoom-in and zoom-out clicks
the images gets distorted. I understand its because of the scale. i am
not able to get back to the exact zoomed-out place after I zoomed-in.
for example lets say I zoomed from 5 to 10. and when i say zoom-out it
might be getting back to 3 or might be getting back to 8. but not to 5.

How can I solve this. What could be the exact values ? How can we know
it ?

plz help. Thanks in Advance.

Rajesh Rapaka.
