272818 - Difficult to zoom in on image corners

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Tuukka Tolvanen (sp3000)]

linux firefox trunk 20041202, seamonkey trunk 20041127

When you click on a zoomed-out image to zoom in to 1:1, the view is positioned
oddly. In all apps afair, in a similar situation, the view is centered (as far
as possible) on the clicked on point in the image. In mozilla / firefox it
instead seems to align the relative clicked position on the image to the same
relative position within the view in a percentage-to-percentage manner similar
to <http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#x8>. This makes it rather tedious to
zoom in to a corner of the image, which would be a common thing to want to do I
believe.

Steps to reproduce:
 1. Set Edit > Preferences > Appearance > Resize large images to fit in the...
 2. View an image, random example

 3. Size browser window so image is zoomed to fit
 4. Click near a corner (but not at the very corner-most pixel) of the image to
    zoom in

Actual results:
Image zoomed 1:1, view scrolled some distance off the corner.

Expected results:
Image zoomed 1:1, view scrolled all the way to the clicked-on corner of the image.

This sounds like it was fixed in bug 207219. Tuukka, can you confirm?

yeah, wfm now in trunk fx 20050516, apparently bug 207219 eventually morphed
into this :)
