Yes, I especially checked
http://agilevisualization.com/AgileVisualization/Grapher/0203-Grapher.html

I went through them, too.
As far as zooming in/out is concerned, I only found that there are two tools:
Add RTZoomableBoxView
which allows one to zoom in a rectangle, but only as if the graph was a
picture, i.e., no axes are redrawn, fonts get bigger, etc.
and
Add RTSelectionBox
which I haven't figured out what it is supposed to do (without reading
the code).
I haven't found any more relevant example which would allow me to zoom
in/back in the sense one needs to see more details from a graph.
Thanks

On the zooming out feature, you could check specifically [1] and on a
more general note [2]. [1] Was made two years ago, and maybe zooming has
been improved and [2] will get a major boost on March while working on
the Dataviz[3] paper and port Grafoscopio to Pharo 7.x.
