Description Leonard Mada 2024-08-10 17:23:22 UTC 
Settings for Default Zoom: User specified value

SUMMARY
The Settings for Default Zoom include the options "100%" or "Fit Width" (default).

The zoom level for "Fit width" is too high, in the sense that the number of text lines that fit vertically on the screen decreases too much, which is rather annoying when reading a pdf article. Unfortunately, my eyesight has decreased significantly, so I need a zoom-level larger than 100%. Therefore, I would like to specify manually a value beyween those 2 extremes (something closer to 125%).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Okular
2. Go to the menu: Settings / General / Default Zoom
3. Explore options for "Default zoom"

OBSERVED RESULT
The options are very limited, e.g. "100%".

EXPECTED RESULT
Should include option to specify manually a value for the default zoom.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
