Zooming in/out in Visualizer is Possible

[HiTechLights]

If you need "zoom" functionality in Visualizer, use Windows Accessibility Feature... Magnifier. You can easily Zoom in 200% within Visualizer and it works great. Plus using the SHIFT key for more even more precision gets you even better results for those OCD guys!

Here's some Microsoft Windows How-To Links for using Magnifier:

Excellent tip. I never even thought of that.

That's what I did when I was creating the RGB strings for my mega tree. There was no way I was going to get the pixels lined up acceptably without zooming in some kind of way. It was a bit klunky at first, but once I got the hang of it, it went fairly quick. I fortunately only had to do one string like that, then I just copied and pasted, manipulating the shape of the strings as I went around. I also used a macro program to change the channel assignments as I went along, which helped alot, and I was only doing 600 pixels!
