extreme top and bottom of image unreadable after rotating in over/under view
My “frustrating” issue is as follows:
When transcribing, I prefer to use “Layout: Image at the top” because I can zoom in on the image (facsimile) and still have an entire line in the viewport.
The problem occurs when a document was scanned in portrait orientation, but written in landscape orientation.
This requires me to rotate the image 90 degrees to read it.
Then, when I drag the image to see the extreme top (or bottom) of the image, the image “rebounds” back to a more centered position when I let go of the mouse, and now I cannot see the extreme top or bottom lines (which are the left or right sides in portrait orientation).
This does not happen in “Layout: Image at the left” or “right”, but those layouts are too narrow to see the whole line when zoomed in enough.
I’m not sure why the viewport acts this way, but it’s preventing me from performing efficient transcription.
