## Source Code

## Howto/Instructions

* Click left mouse button at two positions to define vertices of rectangle for zooming in.
* Right mouse button  to return to initial view.
* increase iterations for big magnifications: Options -> Iterations.
* The rendered area casn be saved as jpeg : File->Save Image.
* Different coloring modes are available under Coloring.
* Color Wrap and initial shift (0-1) can be  also set untder Coloring->Color options.
* Options->GOto allows to specify valus for cx and cy, and also check current location.

## Limitations & Bugs

The zoom-in depth is limited due to the double number format precision.
changing to BigDecimal would fix this issue.
The y axis is flipped!
