Hi there, is anyone else experiencing issues with the Zoom slider in photos? The zoom percentage seems to randomly change for particular photos and I can't seem to set a default zoom for the library (eg. fit to screen). Any tips welcome.

I can just give the standard WAG solution:

Try to start in safe mode and see if it happens there:

Sometimes, just starting in safe mode and going back to regular mode will clear up issues like this.

No promises, though. 8^)

Thanks for your reply. I’ve just completed the latest software update. What is even more frustrating is that I can view the same image at different intervals, and sometimes

the zoom will be at 154% and other times it will be at 84%. I’m certain it has nothing to do with the picture quality as the zoom can be different for photos taken at the same time. Frustrating!!
