Is there any way to zoom in just one dimension?

Each additional level of detail is a zoom level half that size smaller (thus a 2nd level if 2^-1x or 1/2x, then 2^-2x or 1/4x, etc). The bias adds to the base level’s exponent, thus a bias of 2 means the base level if 2^2x (4x) zoom instead of 2^0x zoom.
