Need full screen preview in Adobe Bridge to have a more adjustable zoom function!

Community Beginner ,
Oct 06, 2025 Oct 06, 2025

I like to review my retouch work in Adobe Bridge so I can scroll through my pages consecutively while they are displayed in fit to page size on the screen - BUT - there are times when I want to zoom into a certain section of the particular page to view small details without having to reopen the file in photoshop. 

 

If i try to zoom it just makes the image ridiculously large and I wind up having to revert back to the regular view. To see the actual small details have to re-open the page in photoshop. 

 

Can you please address this issue? 

I see many people would like a more controlled zoom function in the Bridge full screen preview mode. 

Either a hot key combo (Ctrl+ or Ctrl -) or perhaps a mouse scrolling option? 

Others have suggested there is a way to set the mouse scrolling option - but I tried those suggestions and it does not work for me. 

 

Would love to be able to use my TourBox to zoom in and out in full screen preview mode. '

 

It would bea a total time saver if I could review the details on a page without having to re-open every page individually in Photoshop and make me truly love Bridge if you could add this feature. 

 

Thanks

I don't use Bridge frequently so was curious to test the zoom functions, and this is what I found in my Windows system:

Pressing [Spacebar] shows an image in Full screen,

Pressing [+] increases zoom in increments   FullScreen > 100% > 200% > 300% ...

Pressing [-] decreases zoom in increments   ... 300% > 200% > 100% > FullScreen

My Mouse Scroll wheel also zooms by the increments as does [+] [-].

A mouse [Left-Click] will zoom FullScreen > 100% -the image zooms centrally on the position of the cursor., and [Left-Click] again goes 100% > FullScreen -   Ideally you should be checking 'detail' at 100%.

With the [Caps Lock] 'on' the zooming function zooms in/out with a slow pan action.

I agree it could be better to zoom at any % with the scroll wheel instead of the fixed increments.
