Picture: Magnify Canvas
PRO version. This function will enlarge the image by the magnification factor you specify. You can optionally place a grid around the enlarged pixels. This may be useful for situations where you need to highlight individual pixels (embroidery projects, image analysis, etc.).

Checkmark the Magnify with Grid Lines option to place a grid over your picture. This can be useful for gridding pictures for cross-stitch embroidery, etc. You may choose a color for the lines from the Grid Color drop-down.

Notes: Some versions of Windows (Win 95, 98, ME and NT4) run short of Windows Resource Chunks when extremely large images are loaded. If you are using one of these versions, you may receive an error message. If you have this problem, then you should first reduce the size of your image prior to using Magnify Canvas.

Gridding functions may also be found in the Print functions and in the Mosaic filter Effects.
