zoom in view:watch does not center on pointer

Post by hesral »

Hi.

I am having trouble zooming in the watch monitor window. If I click the image, it zooms one step (1.5x) and centers on the clicked area. If I then click the image again, to zoom further to 2.0x etc, it no longer centers on the clicked area, but instead starts "drifting" towards the corner of the image. A wild guess is that it isn't using the zoomed image as a reference, but the original full size image, as if I had clicked that.

This weird behavior also happens if the image starts off scaled at for instance 1/4. It then centers up in the corner at first click.

I am using zoneminder 1.27 on ubuntu server 12.04 64b using the iconnor ppa.

That also existed in 1.25 (which I'm still running)

I think you're right, the decision on what you are trying to zoom on isn't being made based on the image as you see it NOW.

Its a Cambozola thing I believe...always done it, at least for me. I have seen people make reference to an older Cambozola package that might work better but I have not looked into it.

I don't use cambozola. I use just the clasic skin, and view it in firefox.

Hmm. Its been so long since I have not used Cambozola that I didn't know zoom was even capable without it ;) Does using Cambozola improve the zooming for you? Its a bit funky sometime but generally works quite well for me.
