How do I Zoom in towards an object?

Hi,

I'm trying to zoom in/out towards an object. This is how it should work, when I touch the object, It should zoom in towards the object and when I touch the screen (other than the object) it should zoom out.

I tried scaling the layer but this is how it works.

Here are the events

Not sure where it went wrong.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

Any help would be appreciated. :D

Maybe you need to scale the entire layout? Or scale other layers too?

Haven't actually tried it, but my first thought is scaling the layout while simultaneously scrolling to position of the object you want to zoom in on.

Thanks for the tips. I tired that as well but the scaling is not happening properly.
