The Zoom Toolbar

As the name suggests, the zoom toolbar is used to control the preview/edit panel’s zoom. It offers two methods to adjust the zoom: a drop-down menu, and a set of buttons. The drop-down menu will always show the current zoom level as a percentage, even if other controls were used to adjust the zoom.

The Zoom Toolbar

The drop-down menu selects the following options:

  • 1:1 (full resolution) – Displays the image at full resolution. This means that each pixel in the image takes up one pixel on-screen
  • Original Image 1:1 – Displays the image at full resolution at its original scale. If the image isn't being scaled, then this is the same as "1:1 (full resolution)"
  • Fit to window – Adjusts the zoom such that the image fits within the available space
    NOTE: This option will recalculate the zoom every time that the window is resized or the image is cropped so that the image is always fits the available space
  • Various zoom levels by percentage – Adjusts the zoom to whatever percentage of full size (a.k.a., 1:1) is indicated in that option

The zoom buttons perform the following actions:

  • Zoom in Zoom-in – Clicking on this button increases the zoom by a step. Holding down this button will perform a smooth zoom-in until it is released
  • Zoom out Zoom-out – Clicking on this button reduces the zoom by a step. Holding down this button will perform a smooth zoom-out until it is released
  • 1:1 zoom 1:1 zoom – Displays the image at full resolution. This means that each pixel in the image takes up one pixel on-screen
  • Fit to window Fit to window – Adjusts the zoom such that the image fits within the available space

The image can also be zoomed in and out using the mouse’s scroll-wheel.
