Hi Dave,

This issue has been brought up a few times. Right now there is some protection in

TImageScrollBox.ZoomToSelection

which limits the maximum zoom to 1000%, but on large images zooming 1000% just consumes too much memory.

The best solution I can see for now is to add a new propert to TImageScrollBox called MaxZoomPercent. You can lower the value to say 500% and see if it works in your case.

I will email you the new EnImgScr.Pas unit to test.

Best regards,

Michel
