<gregp> I think the Inkscape method has a lot going for it. I do like the slider in OpenOffice, though I realize the range of possible zoom in Scribus (and worse in Inkscape) may make a slider impractical, unless it has some logarithmic behavior. | <gregp> I think the Inkscape method has a lot going for it.

early draft
<greg> add a slider like in oo.org
<ale> here the zoom functions i (would) need:
- an easy way to get back at 100% (eventually see the current %... which could be an input box)
- eventually a way to switch among two zoom levels (mostly all page on screen / detailed view)
- ctrl+mouse wheel to zoom in and out
- + / - in non edit mode and ctrl++ / ctrl+- in edit mode to zoom in and out
- a zoom tool to make a "selected area" fill the window
- eventually some keys like in inkscape (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) to fit to screen with different criteria
- for the beginners it should be possible to zoom in and out with the zoom tool
Some Comparisons
Scribus Zoom
OpenOffice Zoom
Here it's a bit more complicated.
Inkscape Zoom
Here we see a nice juxtaposition of the X and Y of the mouse cursor position, with the Z of the zoom.
