Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some shape sets (in my case, namely the Sitemap shapes) appear too small in the shape menu on the left. It's hard to see the content of some shapes.

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to dynamically zoom in/scale the shape menu to increase the size of the shape previews. For example, to increase the size of the shapes in the menu; a user would:

  1. Hover the mouse over the shape menu.
  2. CTRL-Mouse Wheel to scroll in and out, increasing or decreasing the scale of the shapes.
  3. Shapes at the end of a row would automatically overflow to the next row (and vice versa) if they become too big to fit, which is identical to what happens when the width of the shape menu is adjusted using the bar on the right of the shape menu.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. A range slider, a number input, or even just buttons to increase/decrease the scale in the shape menu.
  2. An option in the toolbar ribbon to increase/decrease the scale of shapes in the shape menu.

Additional context I'm using a 23.6 inch 1920x1080 display.
