public class NavigableImagePanel extends JPanel
NavigableImagePanel is a lightweight container displaying an image that can be zoomed in and out and panned with ease and simplicity, using an adaptive rendering for high quality display and satisfactory performance.

Image

An image is loaded either via a constructor:

 NavigableImagePanel panel = new NavigableImagePanel(image);
or using a setter: 
 NavigableImagePanel panel = new NavigableImagePanel();
 panel.setImage(image);
When an image is set, it is initially painted centered in the component, at the largest possible size, fully visible, with its aspect ratio is preserved. This is defined as 100% of the image size and its corresponding zoom level is 1.0.

Zooming

Zooming can be controlled interactively, using either the mouse scroll wheel (default) or the mouse two buttons, or programmatically, allowing the programmer to implement other custom zooming methods. If the mouse does not have a scroll wheel, set the zooming device to mouse buttons: 
 panel.setZoomDevice(ZoomDevice.MOUSE_BUTTON);
The left mouse button works as a toggle switch between zooming in and zooming out modes, and the right button zooms an image by one increment (default is 20%). You can change the zoom increment value by: 
 panel.setZoomIncrement(newZoomIncrement);
If you intend to provide programmatic zoom control, set the zoom device to none to disable both the mouse wheel and buttons for zooming purposes: 
 panel.setZoomDevice(ZoomDevice.NONE);
and use setZoom() to change the zoom level. Zooming is always around the point the mouse pointer is currently at, so that this point (called a zooming center) remains stationary ensuring that the area of an image we are zooming into does not disappear off the screen. The zooming center stays at the same location on the screen and all other points move radially away from it (when zooming in), or towards it (when zooming out). For programmatically controlled zooming the zooming center is either specified when setZoom() is called: 
 panel.setZoom(newZoomLevel, newZoomingCenter);
or assumed to be the point of an image which is the closest to the center of the panel, if no zooming center is specified: 
 panel.setZoom(newZoomLevel);
There are no lower or upper zoom level limits.

Navigation

NavigableImagePanel does not use scroll bars for navigation, but relies on a navigation image located in the upper left corner of the panel. The navigation image is a small replica of the image displayed in the panel. When you click on any point of the navigation image that part of the image is displayed in the panel, centered. The navigation image can also be zoomed in the same way as the main image.

In order to adjust the position of an image in the panel, it can be dragged with the mouse, using the left button. For programmatic image navigation, disable the navigation image: 

 panel.setNavigationImageEnabled(false)
and use getImageOrigin() and setImageOrigin() to move the image around the panel.

Rendering

NavigableImagePanel uses the Nearest Neighbor interpolation for image rendering (default in Java). When the scaled image becomes larger than the original image, the Bilinear interpolation is applied, but only to the part of the image which is displayed in the panel. This interpolation change threshold can be controlled by adjusting the value of HIGH_QUALITY_RENDERING_SCALE_THRESHOLD.
