Beta 27 - Default Zoom in Options Affects Snapshot Text

Scrivener Windows Beta (Archived)
1

The size of the Snapshot text is being set to the Zoom level set in Options > Editing > Options.

Steps to reproduce.

  1. Open Beta 27.
  2. Set Options > Editing > Options > Main Text Editors Zoom to 300. (Zoom for Document Notes and Bookmark Preview remain at the default 100)
  3. Click OK until Options window is closed.
  4. Restart Beta 27.
  5. Open Scrivener 3 Tutorial.
  6. Select any document in the Binder.
  7. Take a Snapshot.
  8. Click on the Snapshot. It will be displayed at Zoom 300.
  9. Set Options > Editing > Options > Main Text Editors Zoom to 150, leaving others at 100.
  10. Click OK until Options window is closed.
  11. Restart Beta 27.
  12. Open Scrivener 3 Tutorial.
  13. Find the snapshot you took in step 7 and click on it. It will be displayed at Zoom 150.

Since I always work at Zoom 150, it makes the Snapshot pane rather less useful, since I have to do a lot of scrolling to check anything out.

Also, the width of the margins on either side of the Snapshot text are based on what is in Options > Appearance > Main Editor > Editor Margins, which also restricts the visible text in this pane.

A snapshot dedicated zoom factor has been added and will be available in the following update.
