So even when you use view$rotate(), the text direction won't change..is this also what we expected to see?<div><br></div></blockquote></div><div><br>Yes. I can see how that may not always be desirable, but it would be tough to work around it. That is, I cannot tease out the rotation from the rest of the transformation. In the case of a word cloud, I think it would be desirable, i.e., one is thinking of the text as glyphs that are independent of the scales.<br>

<div><br></div></div><div>Yes, if you don't mind spend some time on it, it will be really nice to have a control over the text size, e.g. when I plot a sequence data, like ACTGGGC....I can resize one single character to address the mis-alignment.</div>

This is by design. If this didn't work that way, then when the user zoomed into a chromosome, for example, the text labels would get really stretched out. Glyphs are the same way (they're essentially fancy characters). Zooming into a scatterplot should not make the glyphs larger. Circles (after much debate inside my head) behave the same as glyphs. This is because their radius, like in a bubble plot, is derived from something other than the X and Y axes.<br>
<br>Shapes however, like rectangles, polygons and paths, are zoomed. You expect a mosaic plot rectangle or a map polygon to scale with the plot. <br><br></blockquote><div> </div></div><div>This make sense to me, in most cases, i guess people won't expect the circle or text to be zoomed in.</div>

Deepayan and I decided a long time ago that zooming does not behave like a "magnifying glass." It rescales the plot. <br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>No, you don't have to change that, it's convenient so far, I am just curious why this doesn't work for text and circle, because in other rare case, I will draw very small text as labels of axis for one circular track, or if I draw points around the circular track, I am still expecting the points will be zoomed in when I rescale the view. I guess I am confused the "rescale of the view" with the one you defined with Deepayan, but it make sense to me.</div>

- Use the "render" method on the scene to render to a QPicture, rescale that and display it. This is how I imagined someone making a magnifying glass. QPicture is a vectorized representation, so no nasty scaling artifacts are introduced.<br>
