### Magnify Glass

When the Magnify Glass is enabled ZBrushCore will display a small magnifier to magnify UI and Document. You can adjust the magnifier to you requirements by adjusting the radius, zoom strength, curvature and other settings.

### Radius

The Radius slider sets the radius of the Magnify Glass. A high value will give a larger Magnify Glass.

### Zoom

The Zoom slider sets the zoom factor for the Magnify Glass. A higher value will give greater magnification.

### Curvature

The Curvature slider sets the amount of distortion for the Magnify Glass. A higher value gives greater distortion; a setting of 0 gives no distortion.

### Fade

The Fade slider sets the gradient for the Glass Color. A setting of 1 gives the maximum tint of the glass; a setting of 0 means the glass is completely untinted.

### Shadow

The Shadow slider sets the gradient for the Glass Color. A setting of 1 gives the maximum tint of the glass; a setting of 0 means the glass is completely untinted.

### GColor

The GColor picker sets the Glass Color for the Magnify Glass. The setting of the Fade slider above determines how much of the glass color is seen.

### Frame

The Frame slider sets the Opacity of the frame that surrounds the Magnify Glass. A setting of 1 sets the frame to completely solid; a setting of 0 means the frame will be completely transparent (so invisible).

### FColor

The FColor picker sets the Frame Color for the Magnify Glass.

### Magnify Curve

The Magnify Curve controls the magnification distortion across the glass.

### Opacity Curve

The Opacity Curve controls the glass color gradient across the glass.
