Toggle Loupe/Pan (Hand)
I often want to do a quick focus check with the Loupe tool but once I've selected loupe, I'm no longer able to select images and must press H to get back to hand tool. Is there any way to only temporarily select the Loupe and once that modifier key is lifted, return to the Hand tool? Or, a way to select images while the Loupe tool is selected?

On Mac, with Loupe tool active, image selection can only be changed using the browser strip. Selecting images in the 'Multi View'-viewer is not possible. I assume Windows is the same.
I asked support about it, and was told that this is by design.
But it's possible to use the Loupe tool directly in the browser strip.

Thanks Hans. This is helpful. One thing I've started doing is to use the scroll wheel on my fancy mouse to do a quick zoom in. Not as good as Loupe but a workaround. 0 -
On macOS there's a shortcut to temporarily invoke the Loupe tool (command-space, if I remember correctly). I guess there's a similar shortcut on Windows too. 0 -
Andy,
Are you using the keyboard short cuts?
Also have you looked at the Focus tool?
I'm not sure from your description how you are selecting images. If I activate the Loupe tool (Default is P on the Keyboard) I still have normal image selection control in the Browser.
If I have multiple images displayed in the Viewer (basically a "set") I can scroll through theme with the arrow keys (or mouse equivalent) or move from set to set. Or right click on the next image of interest and then left click to change the selected image without leaving the Loupe tool.
All this in in Win 7.
Or to simply switch between the tools, P for Loupe, H for hand tool.
Note that H can also be used for Overlay and Watermark display. Shift-H will scroll through the 3 optional controls.
HTH.

Perhaps useful info for you: A double click with the Hand tool will go to 100% zoom, another double click to back out of 100% zoom. If the Loupe tool is active cmd or ctrl plus the arrows keys will cycle through images. 0 -
Thank you everyone for the very helpful suggestions! 0 -
The feature is built in but I never knew about it: when I'm in viewer mode (ie non-browser), I just hold ctrl+space bar and I get the loupe until I let go. I believe that's what John was referring to. Thanks again everyone! 0 -

Yes that's what I was referring to. I find it very convenient.0 -

For Mac users reading this, it appears to be Alt+spacebar on a Mac. Thanks - a new trick I hadn't known before.

Edited to add: but you have to press spacebar before Alt, it seems or annoyingly, Siri pops up.0 -

Yes, I have now disabled summoning it (her?) with a keyboard shortcut.
