Wayne,

I finally tried eeschema and find no problem with the zoom factors. But the cursor (cross hairs) is jumping at some of the zoom transitions by tens of pixels.

We have always centered the cross hairs as we zoom in, and I like that. So I expect to see the cursor jump *on the first zoom step* if I am not centered already. But after that it would be much nicer if the cross hairs could be rock solid in the middle of the screen. Since the user experience would be so much nicer, I would say this is worth some time.


And I might add that I would hope the cursor does not move relative to the drawing either in order to accomplish this. That means moving the drawing, not the cursor.
