1.8.4 Zoom & View Tools Remain Broken Across Entire Suite

[Mark Oehlschlager]

Just another reminder to the dev team that the Zoom & View tools and contextual toolbar controls for managing zoom remain broken across the entire Affinity Suite as of the 1.8.4 release.

• Double-clicking the Zoom tool should result in the document being zoomed to 100%
• Double-clicking the View tool should result in the document being zoomed to fit.
• The Zoom pop-up in the contextual tool bar should be synchronized with the Zoom & View tools, as well as the Zoom slider in the contextual tool bar.
• The Zoom slider in the contextual tool bar should be synchronized with the Zoom & View tools as well as the Zoom pop-up in the contextual tool bar.

Thank you for your attention.

Hi Mark,

We're still aware of this issue and is still open with development. Please don't create a new thread every time to report the same issue, just bump your previous thread please!

Thanks

Sure. That's what I thought I was doing here by quoting the old post. What do you mean by "bumping" the previous thread?

As in reply to the existing thread you linked instead of creating a new thread.

Ah. Okay. Got ya. 

BTW, the zoom issue has existed for several update cycles. It seems to me to be a basic function that should've been easily fixed in one of the point updates. Is it more difficult to fix than I imagine, or is it just at the very bottom of a very large priority list?

FYI, the zoom behaviors of the Zoom and View tools remain broken in 1.8.6 across the suite of apps. 

• Double clicking Zoom tool does zoom documents to 100%, but ...
• Double clicking the View tool does not zoom documents to "Fit".
• Zoom levels are not synchronized between the Zoom tool, View tool, and the Zoom pop-up menu and slider in the context toolbar.

Giving this thread a "bump" as you had requested before.
