When I select zoom to selection, the image jumps to the right and shrinks...Why? Any ideas or better, a fix would be appreciated hugely!

What version of what application? Using XDP 11, 12 & 15 zoom to selection seems to work fine here.
seadog, I don't have your product or version installed.
Switch, after zooming, to the Select tool.
Can you confirm that the bounding box selectors cover the same area?
Can you also check that the Status Line is showing the number of items you think should be selected?
Never had any zoom issues.

there is known bug as described by christine at post #27 here:
https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...027#post594027
is this the same one ?
Sorry to have been slow to respond, I had no notifications that anyone had replied and was very busy as well. I have version 15.1.0. The problem seems to be with scanned in jpgs as these two show. Any ideas?

looks like it may be the bug Christine was talking about
It might be down to you using the light skin, which I believe is unsupported.
I have no problem at all with JPEGs. The fact it is a scan is immaterial but useful background.
My zooming is fine for both traditional Xara selectors and the newer photo tools selectors.

using the zoom to select button in the manner Christine described gies me a problem is all I can say
seadog - do you just get this issue just with zoom to selection as in yur original post?
edit - I'm not using lighter skin
Seadog
In the bottom screen shot, is this showing the results of the zoom to selection?
If so, then another questions is why is the drawing moving on the page and it looks like the page is changing to landscape?

I have moved this discussion to Dear Xara.
I'm still not getting notifications. Anyway the lighter or dark skin, no difference. I have no idea. RKissane: Yep, that's what happens. The format hasn't changed, it's just stuffed half the page off screen and I'd really like to know whay. it's more than irritating. Not just jpegs, by the way.
with respect you've been told why - it's a bug - xara may fix it in due course
Re-loaded Xara and all is now well. Still no idea why it was doing that. Glitch in the Matrix, maybe
when you say reloaded xara what exactly do you mean?
restarted the program - restarted the program and the computer - reinstalled the program??
any of these may reset the program, but they won't stop the issue from happening again sooner or later, when whatever it is that causes it is revisited ;)
Change to the fill tool and zoom to selected.
Is it still working as it should, or do you get the "Glitch in the Matrix" again?
well thanks Keith for giving it another go
I do hope that it is the case because if there is a spurious gliich in the matrix it could be a hardware fault, and the can cause real problems
I don't remember anyone reporting anything like this that was not down to this bug...
If it's a hardware issue then a lot of us are having it.
The bug Christine reported is still doing exactly the same on my machine. I suspect that seadog hasn't tried it with the fill tool active, as that's where it's hiding ... I also suspect he isn't reading all the posts.
and how likely is that :D
the tip of the iceberg is all there is to see?Quote:
