I created an alternative to the Xara Hover Widget 2 here: https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...le-Image-Hover.

This one is for the Xara Hover Widget:

CSS - Hover Widget Successor.xar

The CSS Code is a tad more complex as it has to handle two directions.

It beats the Xara Hover Widget as you can actually add Links to any text underneath as I made that percolate to the top (z-index).
In doing so, it gets rid of the CSS jitter (in most cases). The Xara approach uses a lot of JavaScript to handle the movement but it is really limiting in what is revealed...

It is less simple as you also have to tweak the inset and slide distances should you change scale too much.
