Zoom keyboard shortcuts #34
Description
* Pix 1.4.5
* Mint 18.2 Xfce
Issue
- It would be nice if ctrl + '+' and ctrl + '-' were mapped respectively to zoom and dezoom in Pix. Maybe add also ctrl + '0' to revert to original zoom (fill the window).
- I don't understand why you mapped ctrl + 'mouse wheel' to go through the sidebar pictures. This shortcut is usually also used for zoom and dezoom, in all applications I use (firefox and photoshop are the first that come to mind). Maybe replace it with shift + 'mouse wheel', and map ctrl + 'mouse wheel' to de/zoom ?

Go back to the old way, or give an option.

Pix is more for looking through the pictures, it was easier before. Please get is back or give an option.

+1, I hate ctrl+mousewheel for navigating, this is most unintuitive,
I dont think shift-mousewheel should replace it though, for consistency with most other apps out there, this should be used for horizontal scroll....
Of course, ideally the default should be sensible and consistent with the rest of the xapps suite, but with preferences that can be adjusted to users taste....

What is everyone's thoughts on how the zoom is working on pix 2.4.11?

What changed? I haven't really used Pix in a long while

Zoom is working with only "+" ore "-" or mousewheel. But in my humble opinion for zoom the standard is CTL+"+" or CTL+"-" and CTL+Mousewheel.

Well, GIMP is another program that only uses "+" or "-" for zooming.
The mousewheel is used for scrolling zoomed-in images up/down or left/right-with-Shift

I stumbled across this issue but would like to have a way to change the size of the browser thumbnails without having to go into the preferences. Ctrl-scrollwheel is what I'd try first as a user.
