Keeping the question simple...
How does one implement a Dock Magnification effect? I want to create a
similar row (action more like a 2 dimensional array of icons), which
zooms up
when the cursor goes over them, making the selection (and reading the
icon)
to be easier.
Any ideas?
If you use the window list in Quartz debug, you'll see they actually
use a
transparent window for each tile in the Dock.
Are you sure they are for the icons and not the floating text above
them, in my program Popup Dock I found the best way to get floating text
that could hide and show quickly was to have a separate window for each
text.
I am thinking of doing a Magnification effect with my program, one thing
I hadn't work out though was where to put the extra space in a 2D grid.
