Hi. Can you please bring back previous Magnifying glass' behaviour? Or give us an option to choose new or old one? I definitely prefer to mark an area to zoom in and I assume I'm not the only one.

    The setting was moved into GPU-Settings > animated zoom. I disabled animated zoom, and now i can use the magnifying glass with the good old selection rectangle.

        Hi @Wojciech26350256g04e,

         

        Thanks for reaching out. I totally understand how important this feature is to your workflow, and I'm sorry it's no longer working the way you prefer. I'd recommend submitting a feature request over at Adobe InDesign: Feature Requests. Sharing your thoughts there helps our product team better understand the demand and prioritize improvements accordingly. Once you've created the request, feel free to share the link here, so others can find and upvote it as well.

         

        Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.

        Abhishek

        Hi Abhishek. Can you please do it for me or in my name as I cannot log in to the Feature Requests forum (company account, no access to a password)? Thank you.

        Hi @Wojciech26350256g04e,

         

        Thanks for the note. Since posting on the Feature Request forum needs a personal Adobe ID, I can't submit it on your behalf, but I'll share your feedback with the product team internally.

        If you ever get access to an individual ID, I'd recommend posting it on UserVoice so others can upvote it.

         

        Let me know if you need help with anything else.

        Abhishek
