I use Preview to check images. Until Mavericks, showing a picture in actual size worked.
Now, when I open a picture in Maverick in actual size, the picture is enlarged (I have a retina display), I have to zoom out to see in in actual size.
What's wrong?
Preview>Preferences>images> change your setting here.
Preview>Preferences>images> change your setting here.
This is already set appropriately.
Sorry... did not fix my problem...
Someone else having this problem?
Traditionally Preview opens to the size of the screen if the resolution is large enough in the Y axis.
Command 0 will give you the actual size
command - smaller
command + larger
Hi leroydouglas
I am aware of this. But, as said above, the Command 0 is not showing me photos as per there true actual size, even if my preferences are set correctly. It used to work before Mavericks.
It still works for me in Mavericks just like it always has.
I would suggest creating a temporary guest account and see if your problem persist. This would indicate a universal problem with your Preview.
Then try a Safeboot and see if the problem is resolved. This would indicate a third party interference.
This might narrow down a path to resolve your issue.
I tried both of your suggestions.
Temporary account: same problem
Safeboot: Interestingly, in this mode, "CMD +", and "CMD -" both works, but with "CMD 0", the image disapears! It comes back one I use CMD + or - again...
Any further advices?
Thanks!!!

In Actual Size does it say 100% in the menu bar?
On my non-Retina display, Preview is working the same as it did pre-Mavericks. I wonder if this is an issue with Retina displays specifically?

I would boot to the Recovery partition (command R) and reinstall the OS.
Always advisable to have a backup.
Your personal files/folders/preferences are not disturbed just the Operating System replaced.
If command R does not get to recover, than try option command R.
Yes, that might be the thing to do. Do you confirm that this is working fine with a retina display on your computer?
What is the difference between "CMD + R" and "OPT CMD + R" ?
Thanks
A quick google search shows that I am not the only one complaining about this!

I will wait before re-installing Mavericks.
I contacted Apple. They asked that I re-install Mavericks. I did.
Problem still there.
I will have to contact them again...
Spoke to an Apple senior advisor this morning.
This is a known issue at Apple. Will be fixed eventually, dont know exactly when.
But they definitely confirmed that they are aware of the probem.
I can confirm the same issue. It seems that Peview, Safari, Chrome are affected. When the image is opened in Safari or Chrome and zommed out to 100% the image is twice as big as it was under Mountain Lion - no retina functionality. But when the images are bult in into hi-dpi www pages it works properly.
Maybe it is connected to the changes introduced in the scope of the image displaying on non hi-dpi www pages that are now diplayed with no an ugly blur effect.
I hope this will be fixed soon as it is annoying that the retina is not currently supported in such a base tool like Preview.
Same issue here. Waiting for the update to fix it. 😟
Preview - Actual size is wrong
