G'day Marc! Good to see another IIS member coming on board As far as I'm aware, you can't zoom. Create one or more previews in the original image, then in the realtime preview (RTP) window there's a dropdown box. Instead of viewing the full image, select the preview.Previews are really handy.
I asked for 'integer zoom' for the RTP window a long time ago. I hope it gets implemented soon. I don't want resizing artifacts to influence process setting decisions.
Quality setting indicates how much effort is spent making the preview look good. I'm not sure how it works. I simply want the RTP window to zoom in integers just like regular views do. 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 etc.
