Description FernandoMiguel 2008-11-23 19:04:59 UTC

Version:           1.10.90 (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

My problem with KDE4 is the zoom... it stop working as it did on KDE3.  
If I increase the letter size, when i change to the next email, it will reset. If I again increase the size it will start from where the last email was... annoying.

But I cannot EVER reduce the size.... bad kmail.

its a serious regression.

Where do you increase the letter size? In the mail view? I only see two combo box, one for font and other for font size.
How do you increase the letter size? Using those combo box or a key shortcut?

Using the combo boxes, I can change the font size to any size allowed by the font.

It is true, that when I close the current mail view and open another mail, the default font size is choosed. Is this a bug?

I'm using Ctrl+Mouse scroll.

The screenshot with the combo boxes

Ctrl+Mouse Wheel allows me to increase and decrease the font size.

And still, the next mail view is using the default size.

Comment 4 Jaime Torres 2008-11-25 13:14:02 UTC

But, this is working as you describes in the preview panel.

I meant on the message list preview, not the full screen message.

I cant decrease less then the initial value. In KDE3 I could.


> And still, the next mail view is using the default size.

Not for me.
The zoom is initially reseted, but if I try to scroll up, it will start to increase from the value of the last change.

> tmcguire: Zoom out not working is probably a KHTML change, I bet it doesn't 

Yes that is correct. konqueror also shows the same behaviour.

The part where the zoom cant be lowered then the initial value was cloned to http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176069

I like how it works now: I prefer if kmail doesn't remember the zoom.

Comment 9 Laurent Montel 2011-09-08 10:35:30 UTC

I don't understand, you want a zoom in message viewer ? (not there is zoom in message viewer) or in composer ?

Comment 10 FernandoMiguel 2011-09-08 10:38:22 UTC

I no longer use Kmail actively.
unsubbing from the bug report

Comment 11 Laurent Montel 2012-07-16 08:03:35 UTC

I fixed zoom in 4.8
