Intra-PDF hover size - Feature Request

pbartlett
The intra-PDF hover view needs to be scalable. On high-resolution monitors, it is quite small. The only way I have found to make it bigger is to change my Windows scaling amount, but that is frustrating on multiple counts.

The intra-PDF however view is super helpful for looking at figures without splitting the window.

    Please upload a screenshot showing the popup and PDF pages with your typical zoom level so we can compare the difference.

    This is at 100% scaling


    This is at 300%, which I have to change to. I find that this is the only way to make it meaningful and preview figures.

    What is your screen resolution and display size?
  • pbartlett
    My screen resolution is 3456x2160 and is 15 inches big. Even on a 1080p secondary monitor, I find it too small and believe scaling the popup would be valuable to other users.

    Could you also provide a larger screenshot of the entire Zotero window showing the reader UI at 100% scaling?

    100%


    200%. I often have at this or a little bit smaller. This UI would be reasonable for most people, but the Intra-pdf is still too small.


    300%

    UI with 100% scaling seems too small and unusable on 15 inch screen, isn't it? Why are you using it?

    I often use 150 or 175% because that is how I like to use my computer. These were not shown because it is unnecessary. The point I am making is that the Intra-PDF hover should not be tied to the UI scaling which is dependent upon system settings - or it could be a multiplier in reference to the UI size.

    When I have, on several occasions, used the 100% scaling, the rest of the UI is still entirely usable on my 15" screen.

    Even at 300%, the Intra-PDF view is too small, but the UI is ridiculously big.
