circle zooming?

I saw this today and was wondering if something like this may be possible on a ROM in the future?
The new Nokia Maemo OS has this circular zooming trick - see here @2:15 :

Developers here were able to create faux multitouch for the magic and g1, so I was wondering if this could be theoretically possible?
Just a thought.

I forwarded this thread to Loccy.

Here's an app that uses it.

I prefer the circular zoom to multitouch totally.

Thanks for the mention of our new app Photo BURST - a unique picture gallery app with the following features :
* full 360° rotation
* tree folder hierarchical view
* zoomable thumbnails
* swipe to next picture
* double tap to circular zoom, scroll to pan
* stunning slideshows (zoom n’ pan, collage, transitions)
* exif + map display
* fully customizable

[GUIDE] Launching the Multi-Control Panel with a single gesture WITHOUT Root!

For HTC One with firmware 4.2.2 or above, there is a very handy multi-control panel with can allow users enable and disable many features like Wifi, Data, Auto-rotation etc.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However, the stupid Google UI design has made it very slow and complicated to launch the panel with 2 fingers simultaneously or swipe the notification bar down first and press the button to launch Control Panel.
Finally, I figured out a way to launch the Multi-control Panel instantly using one finer
It does NOT require root.
Here are the steps:
1. Download two apps at Google Play: "Nova Launcher" and "Swiping Home Button"
(The second app is a paid app, so you know it...)
2. Launch "Swiping Home Button and click "Binding"
3. You can customize your gesture here and personally I prefer to launch Control Panel by swiping up right (the one with Chinese word)
4. Click on the gesture you like and assign a shortcut to it. We are going to choose "App shortcut" here.
5. Choose "Nova Launcher"
6. Finally, choose "Extended Quick Settings"
You are DONE ! Enjoy the Multi-Control Panel instantly with one finger !

Hey Mate,
Does it mean that Nova Launcher has to be running at the background all times?

I really not sure. But I don't recognize any negative effect in terms of the phone's performance caused by this trick.

Yes. Also, Nova Launcher has gestures as well so I don't get the use of this.

Well, if you use this, then you can still use the Sense Launcher!

- 15 skins for different display resolutions included. For high resolution smartphones, it's best to use ChromeRingsThickversion (eg FullHD), for HD-Ready displays take the version ChromeRingMedium and low resolution devices take at least ChromeRingsThin
- Showing time, date, weather, wind, location and battery Information
- I recommend to set scaling in Zooper Widget Pro to a value between 125 to 130
- It can launch 9 different apps or activities. Choose "Layout" in Zooper Widget Pro from the menu, and set for the elements - AppStart oben/unten/Mitte/links/rechts - under setting "Module OnTap" the appropriate app / activity. The grid corresponds to the full width of the widget with 3 rows and 3 columns per line. Standard settings are to call the battery info in the top right area and the configuration menu of Zooper Widget Pro in the upper left area
