How can I zoom the structure view?

[Allen Jack Armstrong]

After years of using FrameMaker, suddenly I get this. It still works, but it's too small to read. I fear I have somehow inadvertently changed a setting someplace, and can't find where. How do I make it big again? Sorry if this should be obvious.

Hello Jack,

This caught me out too. In FM 2017 the single main zoom control affects the structure view  too, but only when the structure view has the focus. It takes some getting used to but seems to work just as well.

Bless you once again, Ian.

Got it. I thought I had tried that idea, but I see that when I tried it before, the structure view was visible but didn't have the focus.

Hoping you guys don't mind me jumping in here.

Running FM v12 on Win 10.

When I use Cntrl+Mouse Wheel to zoom Structure View, the document window (active tab) undocks - when zooming structure in, but not when zooming out.

Structure zoom level does not follow the wheel in real time. That is, the view stops at some zoom level and sticks while mouse wheel continues, until I refresh the view.

And then I have to re-dock the document tab.

Is there a setting to fix this? An entry in the  .ini file(s), maybe?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,

Sounds like a bug which you can report here:

Klaus Daube explains all ini parameters here:

Here is a reference from Adobe about all parameters in the ini files:

No need to report this as a bug as this is FM 12, which is not sold or supported by Adobe anymore.

That said, yes, this was a bug many versions back but was fixed many years ago.
