[Bug 486816] Re: Strange timeline zoom behavior
I just happen to be working on this feature tonight, so I fixed this
also. The zooming now respects your scrollbar positions, and continues
to keep things centered, as you would expect while zooming in and out.
Also, CTRL + Scrollwheel has been added, and now zooms in and out of the
timeline, of course, while still maintaining your scrollbar positions.
This will be available in the next version... which I will publish soon.
Thanks!

Bug description:
There's a lot to like in OpenShot, but a big issue I experience is with zooming. I have a video project that's about 17 minutes long. Let's say the playback head is at, say, 10:00 while the zoom slider is set to "7 seconds" resolution. Then I want to zoom in tighter. Using the zoom bar, it does indeed zoom in tighter... but to a spot 5 minutes earlier in the timeline. It never centers its zooming in/out on the playback head, or on any other reference point I can figure out. I then have to manually scroll back through the timeline to get back to where I was working.
To me, it would be ideal if the timeline would zoom in and out centered on the playback cursor, because that's where I'm working.
