Description

Description

Currently mouse click and move will zoom in, drawing a rectangle on which area to zoom into.

Klayout has move up right for fit and move up left for zoom out.
This is very useful and convenient for navigating with the mouse.
And it would be nice if the two OpenRoad flow gui”s would behave the same.

What klayout is missing is changing the cursor to make this behavior self explanatory.
Nlview uses “fit” and “x2”, “x3” as cursor for the fit and zoom out gesture.
