XnView Software

Simply put, on XnView MP v1.3.0 and older (at least on my Linux Mint 20.3 Xfce installation), the equals key does not zoom in; you have to pless shift + equals in order to zoom in.

This is different than how XnView Classic behaved in that you were able to zoom in with the equals by itself without holding shift as well.


(thing is, I'm typing this from on a keyboard that lacks a NUM pad, so the hyphen and equals key located to the left of backspace ends up being my primary keys for zooming in exact increments)

...by the way, may I ask why you have the zoom in magnifying glass located on the left and zoom out located on the right, rather than the other way around so as to match the aforementioned keyboard keys as well as how it's positioned in other software (e.g. Firefox, Chrome, even Caja and Nemo)? I know that this is how XnView Classic had things arranged and I always just reversed those two toolbar buttons, but I don't see any way to switch their positions on the bottom status bar.

Well bloody nora, so one can! Good to know.

...but this still differs in behavior compared to XnView Classic where both equals and NUMpad + work for zooming in, but it doesn't appear possible to configure XnView MP in such a manner unless there's a way to map multiple keyboard keys to a single action?

(also, I know I said I'm trying from a PC that lacked a NUMpad, but that was only that specific PC - I do have other PCs with a NUMpad.)

+1 Positioning minus on the left and plus on the right makes sense. Especially given that other software like Firefox and other popular software.
