Description

While working on maps, the dropdown zoom requires two clicks which feels slower than the slider option present in applications like Photoshop. I propose adding a slider + a textfield for interaction to the zoom level. This would allow for faster, more intuitive navigation of large maps, similar to modern design tools.

Maybe this will not make too much change but I think this will be a great change in UX.

Implement something like slider for controlling it.
