So they decided that for all other software, but their own? Since the 
Preview.App obviously ignores that...?

As I already said, in whatever way, the entry exists and works, so actually I 
don't understand the point in discussing what Apple thinks? You can see what 
they think in their new Preview.App with the default settings. That's where 
they are going, completely independent of any technical Framework, ... and if 
you already found a (technical!) way around that, why not present it? This is 
were it's going, should be undoubtable.

If you go for UI cleanness, I'd say it's useless to present an option I think 
(as explained) is of no practical use. So replace this one with the one 
actually used if you want it super clean?
I now know where the option is. I care for all the others who search for the 
physical size. The size you actually want to see, if you want to estimate e.g. 
the final size.
And I would define clean as "easy to use" so all common entries should be 
visible - and I'd really say that is a common entry.

I could also bring forward that it's unintuitively for someone who switches 
from the original OSX Preview.App now and finds this option working in Skim in 
a completely different way here than there.
What's clean in that? That's not even consistent.

Sorry, but there wasn't any contra argument here I could understand until now, 
besides "the implementation is hackish", which - by all dear respect - sounds 
like "I don't like it". Especially because the feature exists already?!

Nobody until now even mentioned if the old somewhat beloved existing 
prominently presented option is of any practical use?



Btw: nothing awesome until now. Awesome would be to respect wishes of those who 
use the software. And, I might be here right now, and I might be the only one 
right now, but I'm obviously not the only one who simply does not understand 
the option in the current way. Would be awesome to take the practical use of 
Skim into account too, besides the technical view and some specifications 
(which surely should be respected, but which I still haven't understood until 
now).

Kind Regards
Ulrich
