For zooming, check out NSView's -scaleUnitSquareToSize: which changes the scale factor of the view's transform. Together with -setFrame: (or -setFrameSize:) you can implement arbitrary zooming. If the view is enclosed by a scroller, it will adjust the scrollbars automatically, as well as any rulers that are shown.

You could also use this simple NSView subclass that gives you straightforward high-level action methods for zooming:

Though since writing that as a subclass of NSView I have discovered you can do the same using a NSView category - it's not necessary to store the scale factor as a data member (as I do here) but just work it out on the fly from other NSView values.

Thanks to everyone for their informative answers. I gotta say, I think the docs are a bit lacking, but maybe I just had certain assumptions going in (that a subview's frame should be contained within a superview's bounds, etc.)
