Zoom Plug-in
killerbot:
Well, this explains why I did not work (and still does not) with me.
I am using a laptop at the moment --> no numeric keypad.
So I had to use the plus and minus sign that are between the regular character keys.
Is there no way to have both minus and plus signs binding to the same command ??
It is indeed a scintilla feauture, that's way it was so easy to implement my useless plug-in.
Experience is being build from stupid mistakes ....
kind regards,

Ok, back at home I tried it on my desktop machine, and indeed the functionality is in the core.
Here's a little wrap-up of the posts as a convenient how-to :
Zoom In : ctrl + (numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad) !!!) or ctrl-mousewheel_down
Zoom Out : ctrl -- (numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad) !!!) or ctrl-mousewheel_up
back to original size :
ctrl-/ (numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad) !!!)
That's how it works.
A comparison though with FireFox :
Zoom In : ctrl + (regular + and the one on the numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad) !!!) or ctrl-mousewheel_down
Zoom Out : ctrl - (regular - and the one on the numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad) !!!) or ctrl-mousewheel_up
back to original size :
ctrl-0 (the NON-numeric part of the keyboard (aka the numpad), so the regular 0 just above the apha-chars !!!)
Therefor : REQUEST to the core developers
- can it be made also to work with the non numpad versions of the keys (+ - /)
This would be more consistent, and would help out laptop users who don't have a numpad.
kind regards,
Lieven

Hello,
Laptops without numpad :?? I have always thought that laptops have a numpad (at least all what I have bought and seen until now).
Best wishes,
Michael

Most laptops don't have a numeric pad !!!!!!
The numeric pad being a seperate area where the numeric keys are (usually at the right hand side of your keyboard), which can be either numbers or arrow moving keys depending on the Num-lock status, so not the numeric keys just above the alphabetic keys !!!!

I am sorry, but it's really hard to believe. I have seen very lot notebooks in my life and each had a numpad. OK: The numpad isn't seperately (as on a PC keyboard) but they are implemented as a third function over the 7-8-9, U-I-O, J-K-L and M key on the notebook keyboard. Furthermore (normally) the notebook has a num-lock key which enables these keys to react just as an external keypad would do. Are you really sure that you do not have this on your notebook? Do you have a num-lock key???
