Adobe Acrobat zoom/navigation frustrations

<< < (2/2)

Stoic Joker:
Wow! ...Broken is right. While I've never heard of that key combo, I do have Adobe Reader 9 installed. Ad when pressing Ctrl + Space the cursor changes to the little zooming + sign.
Pressing Ctrl + Space + Alt changes the cursor to the little zooming - sign.

But neither have any effect on the current document view.

:-[  a BIG OOUPs :-[
once the zoom sign shows, you need a mouse click to zoom in/out (which is done in increments).
[edit] mouse-click needed for zoom to work (incremental). Alternatively Click n Drag to select area to zoom into/out-of [/edit]

But for me it's when the transition from each setting to any other is broken is the problem.


IIRC Adobe is still doing security updates back to version 7 ... So you should be safe with 8 for a while.

I'll have a go at installing 7 if I can find it, & see how I get on.
[edit] Found it - nice site: http://www.oldapps.com/about.php [/edit]

Oh.. Duh! (hehe) that does work. Damn those details... :) Ctrl + Scroll seems easier to me ... But I'm not used to the shortcut. I gotta install Adobe Reader on a new machine hear shortly, so I'll try it with the new version X.

Stoic Joker:
Well... I just tried it with Adobe Reader X and it seem to be working ... Or I'm doing it wrong *Shrug* (not sure)
