Hello,

Today, I ran an update on my Arch Linux system, installing KDE 4.7.0 with
Gwenview 2.7.0. Before the update, when using the Gwenview KPart in
Konqueror, the "View" menu and the right-click menu contained the four
menu items controlling image scaling: "Actual Size", "Zoom to Fit", "Zoom
In", and "Zoom Out". But in the new version, they do not show up, and the
keyboard shortcuts for zooming in / out (Ctrl++ and Ctrl+-) don't do
anything.Therefore it is always in "Zoom to Fit" mode. (They are still
present in the full Gwenview application, though.)

Is there some reason why these have been removed from the KPart? I often
used the scaling options (especially "Actual Size") when viewing images in
Konqueror, and I'd like to have them back.

P.S.: Thanks for writing Gwenview.

This is strange: I just checked and I indeed have the same problem. I
didn't remove it consciously. Will have to investigate. Meanwhile the
following shortcuts still work:

- Toggle actual size: middle click
- Zoom in: ctrl + left click
- Zoom out: ctrl + right click

Hope this helps
