GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 105183
Plain ctrl++ doesn't work to zoom in
Last modified: 2005-12-30 19:10:19 UTC
See HIG bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94910 which causes this. gnome-terminal has the same problem.
It works for me with Ephy 0.7 + mozilla 1.3.1. The only thing which doesn't work is ctrl+= -> normal size, which even works in mozilla itself. regs, Chris
Ok.. here's the deal.. Ctrl++ works if you use the +\? key (that i have) but it doesn't work if + is the key on the numeric keyboard. Ctrl+- does work if you use the -_ key but not if - is the key on the numeric keyboard.. this should be fixed IMHO. Im using 0.9.3 compiled by gentoo

Created attachment 26450 [details] [review] support keypad +/- to zoom in/out
ping : can this patch still be applied ?
The patch still does the trick, but iirc marco wanted to have this fixed in gtk+ for all apps (?).
Mass reassigning of Epiphany bugs to epiphany-maint@b.g.o
Created attachment 36807 [details] [review] Its just a mater of replacing ctrl++ with ctrl+shift++ It is confusing to use ctrl++ so it is better to use shift+ctrl++ as shortcut key
Comment on attachment 36807 [details] [review] Its just a mater of replacing ctrl++ with ctrl+shift++ What about keyboard layouts where you can access + without shift (e.g. german layout) ?
Comment on attachment 36807 [details] [review] Its just a mater of replacing ctrl++ with ctrl+shift++ This doesn't work (I just tested it in german layout): when you can access + without shift, pressing Shift-Ctrl-+ doesn't zoom, and Ctrl-+ zooms. So the advertised accel doesn't work.
Created attachment 36868 [details] [review] modified patch for id=36807 ok shift+ctrl++ wont work in german layout What about other layouts(like French,UK),where + can be accessed only using shift key.So ctrl++ by using +/? will not work in such layouts. So,it is better to use "ctrl+Up" and "ctrl+Down" to overcome this conflict.
The Ctrl-+ and Ctrl-- accels are mandated by the HIG [http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/input-keyboard.html#standard-shortcuts Table 10.7], we cannot change them. Bug 94910 is the relevant HIG bug discussing the problem with Ctrl-+.
AFAICS, this bug was about zooming in and out with the + and - on the numeric keypad. The patch in attachment 26450 [details] [review] is still valid. Should this bug be moved to gtk+ ? Marco ?

Comment on attachment 36868 [details] [review] modified patch for id=36807 This is contrary to the HIG, sorry.
What is the status on this one? Yes, it should go in to gtk, but since this exact same bug has been filed (and already fixed) for many other GNOME apps (EOG, Evince are the ones I can recall), this should be patched too. When it reaches gtk perhaps the patch can be removed, but in the meantime Epiphany has something that many users consider as broken, and so it should be fixed.

Updating version fields. Chpe, does the patch still apply / can we have it for 1.10?
