hi

the text at bottom of screen says to drag pointer up to zoom in and down to zoom out. on my mac it works fro right to left?

Hi  tomf,

 

The two methods to zoom in and out in Affinity are the following

 

cmd ⌘ & + to zoom in

 

cmd ⌘ & - to zoom out

 

alt ⌥ & mouse wheel up to zoom in 

 

alt ⌥ & mouse wheel  down to zoom out

 

Regards,

Darren

I believe tomf is talking about the status bar text for the Zoom (Z) tool, specifically this circled part:

On my iMac, dragging up & down with the Zoom tool does nothing, while dragging left zooms out & right zooms in, as tomf said.

 

It does not make a difference for this but I have enabled "Use mouse wheel to scroll" in the Tools preference.

I have looked into this further and the zoom in on drag up depends on the current zoom level and the where your panned view is on the image, I will log this with the dev team.

how do i stop the document from zooming in and out. This is the most irritating feature.
