<p>
The "Zoom" commands can be accessed from an image menubar,
in the submenu
<span class="guimenu">View</span>-><span class="guisubmenu">Zoom</span>.
In GIMP 2.2, you can also zoom an image using the <a href="ch02s03s03.html#gimp-image-window-zoom">Zoom button</a> on the
image window.
Zooming means changing the magnification level of the
image. Zooming in to an image is useful for pixel-level image
modifications, and zooming out can be handy for working with
broad effects. Note that zooming is not undoable, because it
does not affect the image data, only the way it is displayed.
</p>
<p>
Here are the available Zoom commands, along with their default
keyboard shortcuts if any:
</p>
<div class="variablelist">
<dl>
<dt>
<span class="term">Zoom Out</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
(Shortcut: <span><b class="keycap">-</b></span>) Each time "Zoom Out" is
used, the zoom factor is decreased by about 30%. There is a
minimum zoom level of 6%.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">Zoom In</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
(Shortcut: <span><b class="keycap">+</b></span>)
Each time Zoom In is used, the zoom level is increased by a
factor of around 30%. The maximum possible zoom level is
1600%.
</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<table border="0" summary="Note">
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25">
<img alt="[Note]" src="../images/note.png" />
</td>
<th align="left">Note</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="left" valign="top">
<p>
The keyboard shortcut for "Zoom In" has been a subject of some
controversy, because this is a very commonly used operation, and
on English keyboards it requires the Shift key to be pressed.
(For European keyboards, it does not.) If you would like to have
an easier shortcut, you can create a dynamic shortcut for it; see
the help section for <a href="ch04s18s04.html" title="18.4. Interface">User
Interface</a> Preferences for instructions.
</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">Fit Image in Window</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
(Shortcut:
<span><b class="keycap">Shift</b></span>-<span><b class="keycap">Ctrl</b></span>-<span><b class="keycap">E</b></span>).
This command zooms the image as large as possible while still
keeping it completely within the window. Padding will
probably show on two sides of the image, but not on all four
sides.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">Fit Image to Window</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
This command zooms the image as small as possible without
requiring any padding to be shown: it causes the image to fit
the window perfectly in one dimension, and extend beyond the
window borders in the other dimension.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">A:B</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Here you have a series of menu entries for specific zoom levels,
including, most importantly, the 100% zoom level, which has a
simple keyboard shortcut: <span><b class="keycap">1</b></span>
</p>
</dd>
<dt>
<span class="term">Other</span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
This command brings up a dialog that allows you to choose any
zoom level you want, within the allowed limits of 6% to 1600%.
