Bug ID: 480458 Summary: Can't just scroll with the mouse Classification: Applications Product: gwenview Version: 24.01.90 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: ilikef...@waterisgone.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Can't just scroll with the mouse STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open an image with Gwenview 2. Turn the mouse scroll wheel up or down OBSERVED RESULT Nothing happens! EXPECTED RESULT I expect that the image is zoomed in or out depending on the direction in which the scroll wheel is turning And when zoomed in, the part zoomed tries to be where the mouse cursor is. Like in: Microsoft's Windows's default image viewer: Photo viewer GNOME's default image viewer: Image Viewer (Loupe) MATE default image viewer: Eye of MATE Nomacs Viewnior Vipdisp qView Image Roll Pineapple Pictures You can even zoom in or out maps in web browsers, which once was not possible and you had to press buttons. I find it strange that we have to go back to that and even worse as those zoom buttons were on the map and still accessible with the mouse, unlike a image viewer requiring you to press a button on the physical keyboard itself. Which is a shame as your other hand might be busy holding something like something to eat, drink, your head if you're in bed, might be injured, the keyboard might be broken / faulty, the key that needs to be pressed might be broken / faulty. It also requires the knowledge that a key needs to be pressed at the same time while the wheel is turned. And then it requires the knowledge of which key is that as it will not work with any key. I would have a very hard to explain that to my parents that can barely use their phones. Making them remember that a key also needs to be pressed and which key is that, it will unfortunately be to hard for them. And not only them, but I have to explain to every friend that uses my computer or for which I put Linux + Plasma on their computer. Requiring all that and having to do a web search to understand why the zoom in / out doesn't just work as on Windows or other image viewers and to find out what key needs to be pressed at the same time while the scroll wheeel is moving is, in my opinion, pretty bad for usability. I think that zooming in / out when viewer pictures is pretty common and should be more intuitive. Having to press additional and unknown keys for the majority of us, is not intuitive.
