How to zoom an image in&out in C#?

Question

I want to implement zoom for an image. I don\'t want to resize the PictureBox, but the image itself.

How do I do this?

Answer 1

I used a web browser to achieve this.

//loads the image
myWebBrowser.Navigate(@"C:\myimage.png");

From there I used SendKeys to zoom in and out

myWebBrowser.Select(); //Selects browser.
SendKeys.Send("^{+}"); //Sends the control + key combo, causing the browser to zoom in. Replace the "+" with a "-" to zoom out.

It's a bit of a weird method, but it worked really well for me. I hope you find this helpful!
