Zooming is cool! There are, however, some objects which don't scale
appropriately - the red GOP box is one. (See attached screenshot)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Century Gothic"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic"'>That is because GOP objects are of user-selected
size, just like iemgui objects (which also do not resize for the same reason).
Font based zooming simply changes font sizes and repositions all objects to be
still in the same relation to each other. True zooming (ala desiredata), while
desireable (no pun intended) is at this point IMO too much work for too little
gain. Entire internals need to be addressed because the object mapping and
selection logic is split between the toolkit and c which makes the entire thing
a nightmare. I think this is a good compromise that should work in the interim.
I am also convinced that instead of having one monolithic pd that can do both
editor and headless operation, we really need 2 instances. One that is based
essentially off of libpd and another that is a robust editor with none of the
convoluted client server model between the editor and the engine itself that
has made improving on the code so cumbersome…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
