Request: Toggle zoom shorcut

Post by pim »

Hi.
In IrfanView I like one feature: by pressing "f" the picture toggles between "Fit to screen" <--> "100 %". Irfan remembers this setting when picture is changed.
Comparing similar pictures and choosing the best of them with this feature is very efficient because you can quickly compare both the whole photo (choose best composition) and the same parts of compared pictures in 1:1 details (choose the sharpest one).
I havent found anything similar under XnViewMP. If I missed it, guide me please:-). Else I hope such feature will be implemented soon because in my simple nonprogrammers mind it seems to be easy one to add:-).

Yes, I have. But it doesn't remember the state. When I switch to "100 %", select the detail for comparison and then skip to next image, it's shown again in the "Fit to screen" thus I can compare nothing...
Of course it is possible to have as default setting "show in 100 %" but it is not convenient. In most cases it is more usefull to see whole picture and just for some pictures to watch detail.
That's why I'm asking for "toggle and remember" shortcut:-).

+1 for the remembering the state (i.e. fit / 100%)

Also - "lock zoom' doesn't seem to work (and I think this should solve the issue)
