in thread Need more precision.

Let me clarify.

I know about arbitrary precision. I mentioned it in the OP.

So, if it was a viable option, there would be no need to ask the question, because I would just use that.

I'm looking to see what alternatives there are; so you questioning why I don't want to use arbitrary precision does nothing to help me in my quest.

    Again I respectfully ask, what all constraints are you under, otherwise this seems to be a rabbit hunt.

      This is the constraint. I cannot zoom further, because I run out of precision.

        Fractals are self-similar. All you will find is more of the same...

        Okay so you're trying to zoom in on a bitmap fractal using someone else's app over which you have no control? At least that's what the problem looks like to me.
