Zoom with mouse

Post by Lee James »

I want to hold down a control key (eg Ctrl) and then click and drag left and right to zoom in and out in real time.

This feature is found in other applications such as graphics programs (eg Photoshop) and video players (PotPlayer). Not having precise real-time control of the zoom feels very old-fashioned to me.

That just pans for me.

Are you saying XnView already has this feature and it is possible?
