Can someone fill me in on how to create zoomer objects? If not is there anyone that would create one for me?

For a start I believe there is Desktopx Documentation on the Stardock website. From there I would load a zoomer object in DX and see how it works - properties, settings, etc. Might get you started.

This is for CorelDraw, but it also might help to understand the general creation of zoomers : https://www.stardock.net/people/fauxS-x/Tutorials/CorelDRAWTutorial.htm

All right c242! I learned to make zoomer objects thanks to this tutorial! My first skinning works are done thanks to this excellent tutorial, and thanks to their author, Mormegil

I think, Paul [aka Mormegil] is the pioneer of Desktop X zoomers and objects.

And considered when it all started his objects are still not outdated at all. Can't wait to see some new stuff...
