Single click to Zoom 100%?

NNN636572072415918606
Hi,

Just started using Capture One 11, and I am a Lightroom User. Tried searching for this topic but couldn't see anything related.

Have a simple question, in Lightroom's develop module by default, you can zoom into an image with a single left click, and zoom out with another left click. You can also customize how much zoom you would like with that single click.

Is there any way to do the exact same thing in Capture One?
I notice you can use the mouse wheel to zoom in/out, and double click zooms to 100% and back. And you can zoom in increments with the zoom in/out tool, and the loop also allows zooming for parts for the image, however I haven't found anything that mimics what LR can do. Does anything like this exist?

Thanks.

    Maybe you can set a (custom) keyboard shortcut? Good luck! 😊

    View > Keyboard Shortcuts > View > Viewer Zoom > 100%/200%/400%

    There is a viewer zoom slider at the top right corner of the viewer window (assuming you have not hidden the viewer toolbar).

    Click on the scale point you want to use or on the head and shoulders on the right for 100%. Clisk there again for 200%, ,300% and 400%. Click on the left side H&S to reduce the zoom.

    You can find keyboard short cuts as previously mentioned.

    In the viewer with the PAN tool selected a double click will zoom in or out.

    HTH.

    Lots of good advice here about how to get the behaviour you want even it's not attached to the action you want. I'll add one more thing - the loop tool. I used the "click to zoom" to check focus and details in LR. In C1 I have come to use the loop tool for a lot of that work. It might work for you depending one how you were using LR.

    Also, you can use the loop tool on the film strip icons too. Now when I want to compare the details of two images quickly I sometimes zoom the current image to 100% and then use the loop tool on a film strip icon and I can see 100% details of two images at once.

    You can do that in the viewer as well by selecting both (or multiple) images in multiview mode.

    Zoom individually or in unison by holding the shift key down and using the zoom slider functionality.

    Move images in unison by using the Pan tool with the shift key.

    And once using the Pan tool double click zooms 100% and back. Shift Double Click aill zoom all images 100% and back.

    If the images have been zoomed and are no longer aligned (assuming 2 versions of the same image for example) , shift double click on one of them will both rescale and re-align in the context of the current zoom levels in use.

    There are a lot of interesting control features to be discovered and used according to one's personal preferences.

    Thanks Grant that will be useful to know. I'll be trying that out tonight.

    Cool.

    There's more (maybe, if you don't already know about it.).

    In the viewer using single view mode if you have, say, 3 images selected or in particular 3 variants of the same image that you wish to compare, the arrow keys will allow you to scroll through the selected images left or right and will loop round allowing instant "overlay"/replacement type comparison of any adjacent images.

    If you want more that 3 images but in a specific order you can re-order the images in the browser or, if variant edits of the same image, in the variants order and re-select them. And of course you can drop images from the selection and add others.

    If you have all of the images selected and use the shift key option even in single image viewer mode, all of the images will be zoomed or panned in unison.

    Personally I don't use it a lot but I find it really useful when I do.

    HTH.
