Description Ulrich Windl 2021-01-04 13:28:11 UTC
When holding down the Control key while turning the mouse wheel to zoom, the zoom factor at the lower right is not updated until I release the Control key.
Usability would be better if the zoom factor were updated at least shortly after the zoom does not change any more.
(Firefox uses the same zoom mechanism, but updated the zoom factor (in the URL bar) immediately)

No longer apparent.

In Writer

<Ctrl>+<mousewheel> zoom in or out

The readout of scale factor in the Status Bar Zoom widget updates in sync.

No longer requires release of the <Ctrl> button to refresh.

> No longer apparent.

I still see the effect:
Holding the (left) control key and using the mouse wheel to zoom does not update the scale factor on the lower right UNTIL the control key is released.

Checked with:
