Zoom and Pan in Image Viewer

Zed’s image viewer now supports zooming and panning to help you inspect images in detail. Use scroll-wheel zoom, toolbar controls, or keyboard shortcuts to navigate large images efficiently.

Available Actions

Zoom Controls:

• Scroll wheel + modifier key to zoom in/out
• Toolbar buttons for zoom in/out
• zoom-to-actual - View at 100% size
• fit-to-view - Fit entire image in viewport
• reset - Reset zoom level

Panning:

• Click and drag to pan around zoomed images
• Zoom percentage overlay shows current zoom level

Why This Matters

Image inspection: Examine design details, screenshots, or diagrams closely.

Navigation: Easily move around large images without scrolling.

Workflow efficiency: Quick zoom controls make image review faster.

How to Use

1. Open any image file in Zed
2. Use scroll wheel while holding modifier key to zoom
3. Click and drag to pan around the zoomed image
4. Use toolbar controls or command palette for zoom actions

The zoom percentage overlay appears automatically to show your current zoom level.
