Quite often I caught myself creating layouts that are quite big and do not fit the layout designer designated area. Obviously, there are scrollbars, but thinking about it, I have now added layout zoom button to layout designer..

Hello Mirek,

It sound good! Thank you for this contribution! What about adding following things:
- CTRL+SCROLWHEEL - zooming with scrolwheel (the same behaviour as for code editor)
- What about two options instead of one (zoom in and zoom out)? I think this will allow better control. You won't need to click three times for example when you are on 50% and want back to previous value.

Hello Mirek,

This is a nice improvement indeed.
Thank you.

By the way, can you also implement a more granular text zoom for topic++ (with mousewheel, similar to code editor)? That is something I really miss in theUDE on 4K displays...

Best regards,
Oblivion

Done.

Rejected. (There are only 3 states on that icon, so... wheel has more)

Done. Maybe it is now too granular, please test...

Good Work, thanks.
It will be very useful for the zoom ratios to be shown on the status bar and return to the default 100% when requested.

It is sort of shown inside the icon (but not the number, the size of letter). Icon has only 3 steps, so return to 100% is at most 2 icon clicks.

Thanks, my explanation is a bit incomplete, sorry for my english; I said it for both the code editor and the layout designer, as it states that "Klugier" shows the same behavior as the code editor. Yes, the icon is visible for Layout, but if it exists for the code editor, I couldn't see it Build:16735.
Kind regards,

OK, adding to the queue (but I have bigger issues now).
