Tkinter's canvas widget has built-in features to:
move/pan the canvas (for example with Click + Drag) with canvas.scan_mark
and canvas.scan_dragto
, see this question
zoom the vector elements on the canvas with canvas.scale
, but sadly, this doesn't work for bitmap images on the canvas
Fortunately, this method allows zooming of images (by manually redrawing the zoomed portion of the image). But:
As we are redrawing a particular portion of the canvas, move/pan feature won't work anymore...
We absolutely need to render more than the currently displayed area, to allow move/pan. Let's say we have 1000x1000 bitmap on the canvas, and we want to zoom by a factor 50x... How to avoid having a 50.000 x 50.000 pixels bitmap in memory? (2.5 gigapixels in RAM is too big). We could think about rendering the viewport only, or a bit more than the current viewport to allow panning, but then what to do once panning leads to the edge of the rendered zone?
How to have a move/pan + zoom feature on Tkinter canvas, that works for images?
Advanced zoom example. Like in Google Maps.
Example video (longer video here):
It zooms only a tile, but not the whole image. So the zoomed tile occupies constant memory and not crams it with a huge resized image for the large zooms. For the simplified zoom example look here.
Tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Python 3.6.2.
Do not forget to place a path to your image at the end of the script.

P.S. Here is the GitHub application using advanced zoom for manual image annotation with polygons.
(The question TITLE doesn't indicate that it's focused on bitmaps. I add an answer here for those who were interested in basic zoom/pan support for canvas, and got here by a search engine)
The fundamental mechanism to support zoom (with wheel) and move/pan (with left-button drag) is as follows:
from tkinter import ALL, EventType
canvas.bind("<MouseWheel>", do_zoom)
canvas.bind('<ButtonPress-1>', lambda event: canvas.scan_mark(event.x, event.y))
canvas.bind("<B1-Motion>", lambda event: canvas.scan_dragto(event.x, event.y, gain=1))
def do_zoom(event):
x = canvas.canvasx(event.x)
y = canvas.canvasy(event.y)
factor = 1.001 ** event.delta
canvas.scale(ALL, x, y, factor, factor)
Simple extension: support zooming of each axis individually, by looking at the state of Ctrl and Shift, as follows:
def do_zoom(event):
x = canvas.canvasx(event.x)
y = canvas.canvasy(event.y)
factor = 1.001 ** event.delta
is_shift = event.state & (1 << 0) != 0
is_ctrl = event.state & (1 << 2) != 0
canvas.scale(ALL, x, y,
factor if not is_shift else 1.0,
factor if not is_ctrl else 1.0)
You might consider using map tiles for this case. The tiles can be specific to the zoom level. After selecting the tiles based on the pan and zoom level you can position them on the canvas with Canvas.create_image
.
Assuming you have some tile class with its coordinates and image, you could select for visible tiles based on the pan, zoom and frame size.
for tile in visible_tiles(pan_center, frame_dimensions, zoom_level):
canvas.create_image(tile.x, tile.y, anchor=Tkinter.NW, image=tile.image)
There is a full sample of this in Tile-Based Geospatial Information Systems by John Sample and Elias Ioup in the chapter on Tiled Mapping Clients.
