a helpful change to zoom with hotkey z

[Klobrillenmann]

Hello together,

 

 

I dont use mouse wheel to zoom, I am working with a wacom.

 

On a wacom, zooming in Designer always breaks up my workflow, because when e.g. using the move tool and then change into zoom with "z", I also have to switch back to the former tool by an additional keystroke.

 

My suggestion is, if the z key is kept pressed while moving the mouse and is then released after mouse movement started/occured, designer automatically switches back to the last used tool.

This - in my opinion - integrates zooming more into a fluent way of working with designer (not only on a wacom).

 

Also leave a short single press to switch to zoom tool as a "permanent" tool.

 

A timing threashold will be needed, I think.

 

Thanks and regards

Hi Klobrillenmann,

 

That's certainly worth us considering, so thank you for the suggestion :)  For the moment, did you know that you can just hit 'z' again and it will move back to the last tool you had selected? So you can hit 'z' to enter Zoom tool, then 'z' again to go back to the last tool you were in... That might make your workflow a little better while we work on it :)

 

Thanks,

Matt
