See The Zoom Level as a Number & Slider
Hi,
Back when I was just starting to use PDF-X there was a toolbar what that had a wee slider AND a number. Am I right about that? At the foot of the pages. So you could see what Zoom value you were at.
What is the name of that tool, and can I place it into any toolbar that I like via the customize toolbar feature?
I FOUND a wee slider, but it shows no numeric value.
How can I get that slider back that has both the slide AND the numeric value displayed?
Sincerely,
SCH

Open whatever document in PDF-XChange Editor.
Then, right-mouse-click in whatever toolbar and turn ON the "Page Zoom"-toolbar.

If you like to copy the two commands in that toolbar to another toolbar, then first activate "Customize Toolbars", select the Zoom-number and next, while pressing the CTRL-key on your keyboard, drag-and-drop it to the desired toolbar. Same thing with the Zoom-slider.

Thanks, Willy.
Indeed this is the correct approach to achieve this.

GREETINGS Good Brother Willy & Dr. D!,
Was able to re-check the Zoom toolbar but...of course I had dragged out the tool a while ago and...it was not there!
Tried to SEARCH for it and, curiously...couldn't find it: What do you think is happening?

Re: See The Zoom Level as a Number & Slider
The two missing tools/commands are the following:
- the zoom-number = Set a custom zoom level for the document - cmd.zoom.combo (I can not immediately find this in the list)
- the zoom-slider = Zoom Slider - cmd.zoomSlider
The simplest thing you can do is reset the "Page Zoom"-toolbar.
Make sure that at least one document is opened.
Then in whatever toolbar, right-mouse-click and Customize Toolbars...
In the Toolbars-tab, look for the Page Zoom toolbar, click on it, and click Reset and Close.

Hello, Willy Van Nuffel
You are correct, the Zoom value text field does not seem to exist in the commands list. If you need to place a duplicate copy of it somewhere other than the default location, you can Ctrl+Drag it to copy for now. I will pass this along to the Dev team so that we can hopefully see it added in a future release.
Kind regards,

GREETINGS All! : ))))
Ah! My results were a bit bizarre? I was able to reset the toolbar, and then to drag it around a bit...but gave up as had some things to get done and it seemed like it wanted to be its own toolbar. I thought maybe I could JUST drag out the number element.
Then, once I got back to it...It wouldn't even seem to allow itself to be dragged? The 4-way icon wouldn't even appear.
What do you think is happening?

Hi,
I think that you are dragging the toolbar itself and not the elements that are in it, like the zoom-level, zoom-out, zoom-slider, zoom-in.
> >
While in "Customize Toolbars..."-modus, you must first select the desired element individually (indicated here above in light-blue rectangles) and then CTRL + drag-and-drop it to the desired location in an other toolbar.
Does that work for you ?
Kind regards.
