-1 No use case explained
Comment 2 Cade 2015-04-18 18:03:22 UTC
Use cases.
* Zoom to one column of multi-column document (fit to column width).
* Zoom to part of image (picture, sketch, map, photo, chart, etc) (view details).

Okular 1.9.3 (KDE Applications 19.12.3) seems to have this feature: There is a "Zoom" tool that allows you to select an area and Okular will zoom such that this area fills the screen.
Comment 4 Laura David Hurka 2020-05-13 22:21:43 UTC
This bug report was about not using the zoom tool. I don’t really understand that, but Cade must have had a reason to report this.

If someone can explain why adding this feature is more important than keeping the context menu simple, please explain. Otherwise I let this be closed in 30 days.
