  custom comp viewing size

  Posted by Eugene Hooper on October 7, 2009 at 9:39 am

  Hey guys, would like to know whether it’s possible to determine your own magnification size for viewing in the comp window. I’ve got a small macbook screen to work on so it would be nice to have a custom fixed size instead of the annoying preset increments it has.

  Thanks in advance

  You could set up and save your own personal workspace, with the viewer set to fit up to 100%. AFAIK there’s no way to alter the zoom to a custom fixed percentage.

  Is there a special reason why Fit up to 100% isn’t working for you?

  Cheers,
  Ben

  Hey, sorry what I meant was is it possible to type in your own specific percentage for the zoom? The Fit up to 100% option works perfectly fine, but I am only working within a small element within the composition window so I’d like to zoom in appropriately. The increments jump from 50% to 100%, but 50% is too small and 100% is too close. Is it possible to type in for example 75%?

  Cheers
