Suggestion for more document view controls

[Hadriscus]

Hi all,

I'd love to have a simpler way to zoom around the canvas, I mean without having to switch to the zoom tool and then switch back. Since MMB is used for panning the document already, I thought ctrl+MMB would be nice. Krita does this (as well as shift+MMB to freely rotate the view) and it's great : it can be adjusted at any time, regardless of the active tool.

Cheers !

You can use the space bar + LMB to move the canvas and ctrl + wheel to zoom in and out. Also you can set keyboard shortcuts to rotate the canvas.

Thanks, I have no problem panning with MMB but it's good to know there is another shortcut. Unfortunately I don't use a mouse so I don't have a wheel to zoom with, hence my request.

Thanks ! I just did ! Ability to freely rotate (ie not in increments) would be ideal but this is already very handy.

Cheers,

You can currently do that with the trackpad on a Mac or with one of the newer Wacom tablets that supports touch gestures.

Ayyyy mine is from 2013 and isn't tactile... but good to know... hoping it'll last some more years still !
