Hi!
Xfwm4 has desktop zoom (Hurray!) as I am visually impaired, this is an
utter necessity. (I use my peripheral vision for mostly everything)
And the implementation xfce has is great: continuous zoom, butter-
smooth moving and solid. Thanks a lot for implementing zoom.
Current behavior for the zoomed area is to follow the mouse pointer
position.
I believe it would be very convenient for the zoomed area to also follow
the text cursor position.
Currently, when I type my cursor 'walks out' of our zoomed area and I
often find myself adjusting the zoomed area's position (with the mouse)
to match the text cursors position. (if that makes any sense.)
Would it be practically feasible to have xfce4 follow the text cursor
aswell and analogue to the mouse poiter.
Is there a common denominator for all/most applications' text cursors
that can tell us where their cursor position is?
Thanks!
