Zoom to follow mouse position

Open nathaneltitane opened this issue 5 years ago • 7 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The zoom position seems to be fixed at the center of the model view - the mouse wheel zoom does not focus on where the mouse actually is on the model while zooming, requiring to pan or rotate to get a proper view.

Describe the solution you'd like Pointing the mouse to a specific area and scrolling to zoom in or out should result in zooming on the 'pointed' area.

Describe alternatives you've considered Zoom + Pan - too lengthy and repetitive

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

I can see how this would be convenient on occasion but I wouldn't want this to be how zoom always works. usually when I zooming in or out, the pointer position is out of the way and unrelated to what I'm focusing on.

@rsbx @leozide maybe this option can be atoggle in between 'default' and 'follow pointer'

Any further input or should I just close this?

Sounds good. Thanks @leozide

@leozide here are clips of the expected behavior (Solidworks) vs what leocad does. Sorry for the links, windows does not provide a smaller file size.
