Image Zoom Controls
Zoom into screenshots for precision annotation and inspection.

The View tab in the ribbon has four zoom buttons. Keyboard shortcuts and scroll wheel also work. The current zoom percentage is shown live in the properties bar below the canvas.
How to use it

| Button | Action |

| + | Zoom in ×1.25 per click |
| − | Zoom out ×1.25 per click |

Ctrl+- |

Zoom percentage
The current zoom level (e.g. “125%”) is shown in the properties bar below the canvas. It updates in real time for all zoom inputs: buttons, keyboard, and scroll wheel.
Tips & gotchas
- Zoom state resets when you switch to a different capture.
- At 1:1 on a large screenshot the image extends beyond the viewport — scroll to navigate.
Ctrl+Scrollanchors zoom to the point under your cursor — useful for zooming into a specific detail without losing your place.
