The zoom button in the gallery... Please for the love of all that is good, move it above the image....



The amount of times I've clicked too fast on the zoom button and its opened the image in a tab (your mouse cursor is in the middle of the image after its zoomed in one level). Driving me nuts.

Am I just using the gallery wrong or does anyone else end up having to click back loads just to zoom into the image??

I sometimes do that too, especially with larger images. It would be nice to have it both above and below the image. Maybe there could also be keyboard shortcuts for zooming?

Alternatively, just get rid of the clickthrough and make zooming work like on the forums - click to zoom, ctrl+click to unzoom. Clicking through isn't useful, in my opinion. Plus just about every browser these days lets you view images on their own very easily, there isn't much need to have a dedicated feature for it on a website.

Yeah, having it work the same as the forum would be ideal! (or both above and below)

I'm currently searching for features to improve in PJv4. I can't promise that this will get in as there are much more important and bigger projects on our todo list, but I'll make sure it gets passed on to the developer!
