Description Mathieu MD 2012-10-13 17:20:57 UTC
When displaying pictures A to D, if you zoom on the picture A, while you go to picture B, the zoom ratio is reinitialized, so you have to zoom again.
It would be very helpful (particularly for scanned documents like invoices) to have an option enabling to keep the current zoom ratio, instead of it being reset.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In a folder with at least 2 pictures, open the first;
2. Change the zoom ratio (by example, middle-click to get from 23% to 100%);
3. Scroll down to open the next picture;
4. The zoom ratio has been lost, you have to zoom again.
Actual Results:  
The zoom ratio is lost when changing of picture

Expected Results:  
The zoom ratio should be kept from one picture to another

In terms of user stories: I use Gwenview to compare multiple shots to select the image which is the least blurry, much like an onion-skinning tool, and will hit the 100% zoom button and scrub through a series of images.  

I do not see this as an enhancement request, as prior releases of gwenview maintained the Zoom and relative position of the viewport from image to image.   It has worked this way for many years.   But I only noticed after moving to openSuSE 12.something.

One of the more useful features has disappeared.

I agree, but there's a workaround:
