#7394: Display zoom factor --------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: humdinger | Owner: leavengood Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Applications/ShowImage | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All --------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by humdinger): One thing speaking against the zoom level display/setting in the toolbar is that it disrupts the visuals a bit, because it's the only non-icon button. Also, I think changing to a specific zoom level isn't needed very often. Most of the time you just resize the image window until it's convenient and at max. use the zoom in/out button to reach the next even- numbered zoom level.[[BR]] So, putting the zoom level as info to the rest of the data in the status bar seems appropriate. Changing levels via pop-up menu would be just a nice gimmick.[[BR]] What I wouldn't like at all is a white free text field to enter a specific zoom level. Besides being used not often (IMO), I don't think it'll look right. If deemed absolutely necessary, add a "Other..." to the predefined levels and open a small window to enter a number. Also, don't use too many predefines. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7394#comment:4> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
