Hello all, I was wondering is it possible to add the input functionality to the zoom plugin? Currently zoom plugin is one of my favorite ones, I can open a terminal and still not increase font size but zoom on and READ it... ... because I'm not able to input anything to it, please correct me if I'm wrong; maybe it is already possible, but I still don't know how to do that... I'm used gentoo overlay portage, xgl-coffe, to install compiz-20060416. Thanks in advance! -- Askar Bektassov (????? ????????)

We could do things like split the screen in two, have one half show a zoomed in view and the other half still accept input without input redirection in the server but no one have implemented that yet AFAIK. -David
