Zoom in Bridge lousy, Zoom in ACR perfect, why, need it to be perfect in Bridge, not ACR....

Question

Zooming in ACR is perfect, so why is it so cumbersome in Bridge, it is same-author program package, and it is in Bridge that I need the perfect zoom function, as thát is where the selection process happen....?

In ACR, You can in the settings set the default zooming to for instance 400%, which is perfect in terms of checking whether the image is actually 100% sharp, NOT THE LEAST because it zoom in exactly where You click, however in Bridge, it zoom to 100 percent, somewhere in the vicinity of where You clicked, and it is for one thing VERY cumbersome to drag the image - bit for bit - to the eye that You for instance want to check, if it didn't zoom in exactly where You clicked (which it doesn't do 8 out of 10 times), and likewise it is also quite difficult to get it to the 400%, or whatever level You want to get to, as it more or less zoom in and out frantically (exactly this may be a matter of mouse sensitivity though, however, unlike ACR, it is not possble to preset a zoomlevel in the settings....), all while the "zoom centre" move around arbitrarily when You fumble Your way around the different zoom levels, so even more dragging the image around, bit for bit, will be needed afterwards.

Any way, more than anything, it is in Bridge that I need to check if the image is sharp, in the selection process, not in ACR, in ACR the selection process ought to have been completed, so I suggest that You (/Adobe....;- ) copy the zoom function in ACR to Bridge, and if it was then possible to move around in the image with one or two fingers sliding on the (Apple mouse or) trackpad, so that it is equally easy to check for instance the other eye, then it would be absolutely perfect....

Hi, @easer , it may not be obvious, but ACR is a different application then Bridge. Bridge is NOT an image enhancement application as ACR is. Rather, it is a viewer, full stop. Also, consider that the Lightroom family (Classic, Desktop, Web, Mobile) is ACR with a database.

To add to this, Bridge does not have the code to magnify an image, but it can reduce as necessary. Let's say your monitor is 2000 pixels wide. If you open an image that is 2000 pixels wide, you'll see the image at 100%. If you open an image that is 1000 pixels wide, you'll see it at 100% OF THAT IMAGE. However, it will appear as 50% of your monitor's size. It cannot zoom in. In other words, when you tap the Spacebar, you'll fill the screen with your image, but it may not be 100% viewing of that image.

If this is something that's really critical for your work, I suggest you check out Lightroom Desktop or Lightroom Classic because, as you say, ACR can do this, and, as stated, the Lightroom family is ACR with a database (and the capability to display an image at 100%).

Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but it's the reality of what is.
