I have been trying to use this example to learn about zooming and scaling. It does a great job of demonstrating scaling.
I've been trying to figure out how to change it so that rather than simply zooming on the current center of the view, it will zoom in on the position of the mouse pointer
. I have failed. I'm not sure which values to use to do the math. I've found some examples in other languages, but none for JavaFX.
I had the same question here on StackOverflow. The following code is a modified version of the question/answer there.
