When I use Home and there are fewer nodes (1-4?), it zooms in to fit everything into view but is there a way to always zoom to 100% without fitting the entire network?




Thanks.

Thanks.

you mean “h” key or what?
If you press right mouse button in network view, there is “Viewing controls”!

Thanks, yeah the H key. It zooms to 100% scale which is good, but if there are a few OPs in the view, then it zoom as much as so they occupy the whole view, in that case they appear to be zoomed probably 900-1000%. Just wondering if there is a way to always zoom to 100% scale, regardless the number of OPs in the view.

I checked the right click options before but I will have to look at them when I get home again.

You'd need something like a “Max zoom when homing” preference, with a reasonable default set. It would have to make exceptions for large nodes, like Global Variable VOPs. To be honest, I'm not even sure what 100% zoom looks like in the network editor - it's designed to be a continually scalable layout, so actual zoom numbers are never used.

Thanks twod, exactly what you said.

I might be wrong but when you have certain number of nodes, homing always seem to have a consistent zoom scale, as the nodes always look the same size. I never worked with VOPs yet so I might be missing some of those behaviors you mentioned.

Internally you guys have some sort of size/scale value though, right? I assume something like 1 for no scale = 100% scale.

Yes, there is an internal scale. It's never advertised, though, so without printing out the value and scaling about, I don't really know what it looks like

lol gotcha 8)

Are you doing this on a network with sufficient number of nodes? Otherwise, it will hit upon the maximum scale.
