Quick look: Get rid of the margin around PDFs in fullscreen view

When you use the full screen view in the App Quick Look everything is fine with pictures for example.

A picture in portrait format fills the complete height of the screen.


It is different with a PDF.

Quick Look presents a margin of about 4 mm on top and at the bottom.


How can I get rid of that margins please?


If that is not possible: What do you think about that behaviour? I'm curious about your opinions about that inconsistency.


Thanks.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

@dialabrain

Yes, I use the default resolution.


The margins appear only with PDFs and not with any other formats (like pictures).


I hope we can find the cause for the strange behaviour.


My OS X version is 10.11.4 and I use a MBP 13" 2015.

With "we" I meant that I appreciate it, that you help me 🙂


I created a new user:

same effect


I booted in the safe mode:

same effect


May be it is a bug in OS X in combination with the MBP I use?

Really nobody out there with a MBP 13" 2015 who can reproduce the problem?


It would be great if someone with such a MB could post, if he can reproduce what I see here. Thanks.
