Description Allan Day 2010-04-26 21:37:28 UTC 
Best fit and Normal Zoom are states. The toolbar buttons and menu buttons which control these should provide feedback about when they are true: the appropriate toolbar buttons should appear depressed; the relevant menu items should have check boxes next to them (like Evince does).

This change will make EoG's user interface more usable, since it will (in some situations) prevent users being confused about the current zoom level. It will also teach users about the default zoom level and how to return to it.

Implemented this for "Best Fit" (Shrink to Fit) now but left out normal zoom. Normal zoom doesn't change the zooming behaviour as "best fit" does. It's more a bookmark/shortcut for a fixed zoom factor of 1.0. Also they can happen both at the same time which could be confusing again.

    Make "Best Fit" a toggle action
    
    This should make it clear from the toolbar when the image will be
    rescaled with the window and when not. Fixes bug 616890.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
