SUMMARY When I zoom the canvas through the mouse scroll in the official build, it zooms centered on the current position of the cursor. The new beta only zooms statically centered on the canvas. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Krita 2. Zoom in/out with the middle mouse scroll. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Windows 10 x64 macOS: (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window) Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
You can change the behaviour in: Settings -> Canvas Input Settngs -> Zoom Canvas Default is: Zoom In Zoom Out Change those to: Zoom In To Cursor Zoom Out From Cursor
This is a regression.
Git commit 2aa98b8644f3d7055be4220280c89ac1b30baafb by Dmitry Kazakov, on behalf of Carsten Hartenfels. Committed on 12/02/2026 at 09:57. Pushed by dkazakov into branch 'master'. Swap zoom to cursor with zoom to center action In a8bee67d4c2887a5997beaa581c904cefc439882, new "zoom to center" actions were added, which zoom into the center of the canvas instead of where the cursor is pointing. However, instead of actually adding new actions for this new behavior, the old actions were modified to have the new behavior and the old behavior was added as new "zoom at cursor" actions. That obviously causes regressions because everyone's canvas input settings suddenly get switched to the new behavior. This rectifies the situation by swapping the old actions back into the place where they were before, making zooming at the cursor the default again. Of course that means anyone who meanwhile changed their canvas inputs to work against this breakage will get broken again, but hopefully since they did it once, they'll also be able to do it again.
