Well I've searched for this and have come up empty. What I would like to do is have a picture of a schematic up on the front panel, and while the VI is running the user can somehow zoom in/out of the picture in real-time. I know there is a thing called Zoomfactor which you instantiate in a way in the Block Diagram, but that seems to zoom in on a picture pre-run of the program. The zoom is not real-time. There is no real user ability to zoom in/out with free will using the Zoomfactor that I can see. (sorry I forget the function's full name). And I've seen posts by someone named George Zou who seems to have come up with a VI that is closer to what I want, but the VI's I pulled from his site don't seem to work with my computer (my rig is running XP with Labview 2013 currently). So, I was just wondering if anyone else had found other suitable answers to my quire?

Use an Event structure in order to modify zoom factor during runtime. You can even program your own shortcuts for the Event structure, for example if the user clicks on one particular point on the picture, and you read this coordinate out, and you zoom in a way that this point stays in the center...There are many options to play with...
