Zoom in function

PostThu Mar 04, 2021 6:35 pm

Another Resolve newbie question.
I'd like to be able to zoom into the image as much as possible when color grading, creating effects and drawing power windows but the maximum seems to be 300%. Is there any way to zoom in further?

Coming from the Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop applications which allow for 1200% zoom capabilities I find 300% very limiting.

p.s. Working on a Mac with Wacom stylus not a mouse.

For Windows: To zoom and out of the viewer on the color page just use the mouse wheel. To scroll around the zoomed-in image hold down the Ctrl key and use the mouse wheel to scroll vertically, hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys and use the mouse wheel to scroll horizontally.

Thanks for your reply Sean. However, I wasn't asking how to zoom in to an image, I wanted to know if 300% was the largest zoom possible in Resolve.

Ah, sorry. My propensity to skim is increasing with age and it usually comes back to bite me.

If you use the mouse wheel on the color page viewer to zoom in then you can go beyond 300%. When I do it on my system (DR 17 release version on Windows 10) the number in the zoom drop-down goes up to 999% but you can still zoom in more than that even though the reported zoom amount has maxed out.
