Description Salazar 2008-03-16 13:49:19 UTC

Version:           0.6.1 (using 4.0.1 (KDE 4.0.x >=20080201) "release 14.3", compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.17-0.1-bigsmp

I usually zoom PDF files, by pressing <CTRL> and scrolling the mousewheel. Other apps (Acrobat, Audacity, AutoCAD, Google Maps) zoom-in in that zone, where your cursors is placed. But Okular zooms-in at the centre of the screen which is most times inconvenient.

Okular is a great further stage of the KDE doc-viewers. So keep up the good work and thanks.
Salazar

Agreed, zoom-into-cursor is used by many modern applications (including also Gimp and Kolourpaint) and is usually much more convenient than zoom-into-center + pan.

Comment 2 Žygimantas 2012-04-04 17:11:25 UTC

This improvements seems to be very reasonable. I would like to see it in the next release.

Nah, a bit hard to generalize the other bug to cover this one too...
