Improve navigation for mind maps

Open BenHerbst opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

I can easily navigate via arrow keys, but on big projects, things get more complicated... Zooming doesnt works that well, i always end up being at an other position instead of the one I wanted to be.

How to improve this:

  • Move around via mouse pressed scroll wheel and moving mouse ( like in Minder, Godot, Blender )
  • Zoom first collects the current mouse position, then just moves to that one until user presses other key then zoom
  • Smooth zoom
  • Smooth movement

I'm afraid the performance is hard to improve for drawing on Swing canvas, especially the case you have many topics in a map.

But please implement moving around via middle mouse press, every app has that, also some swing ones like Geogebra 4
