I'm used to working with a zoom that increases by 10% per click below 100%, and 20% above that. Is there a way to duplicate this? Using a drop-down menu is just too slow.Thanks,Ellen
Is there no way at all? That's sort of depressing, because I'm finding this extreme zooming very awkward. Could this be accomplished with a macro (not that I know how to write a macro)?
Hello ellenelle; If you have a wheel mouse then that can be adjusted in Windows for zooming in Corel and other programs.

Neither of the mice (mouses?) I use has an actual scrolling wheel, and any way I really don't like zooming with a mouse. I prefer to be able to click either a button or with the tool. Also, for things that I do constantly, I hate to have to press a key while mousing, so that's really not a great solution. I don't think I'm asking for anything obscure here; surely other people feel the same way.

ellenelle; The mouse wheel is a Very Good thing for me, and everyone that I know that still use a mouse. Holding down the "Shift" key will center the the zoom, and let you zoom to a larger area. I don't remember any other complaints about the way Corel zooms, but if there any I,m afraid that you are out of luck with this Ver.
Is X6 any different?
ellenelle; If you hold down the Ctrl key you can pan left or right according to which way you turn the wheel, and if you hold down the Alt key you can pan up or down. It's the fastest way of getting around a drawing I have found yet. ( I got the info on this forum, like a lot of other things to make drawing easy and faster.) This is for Windows 7 64 bit with Corel X6.2
I appreciate your trying to help me in that respect. The trouble is that I have hand problems, I'm using adaptive devices – you can't imagine how much time and effort I put into getting things to work for me when I can't work with normal mice and keyboards – and there's a limit to what I can change before it starts to impact my physical comfort. When I say something works well for me, it's not just that I have accustomed myself to it, but that it works well for me physically.
ellenelle; I am SORRY, Sometimes I forget that not everyone is able to do things the same way. I do wish you GOOD LUCK in finding something that will work for you. Have you tried a search on the net?
Best Regards, George
No problem. Yes, I have been searching my brains out. Looks like somebody came up with a macro that might have done something like that, but when I clicked on the links it was no longer available. That's what led me to think it might be able to be done with a macro.
