<note style="sidebar"><title>Best Fit</title><p>When an image is zoomed to fit the window, resizing the window
24
will also change the zoom level, so the image still fits the window. While <gui>Best Fit</gui> follows the window size, it will only change the zoom factor at most to 100%. It will not zoom any further to have smaller images fill the window.</p></note>
26
<p>To fit the entire image into the window, click <guiseq><gui>View</gui><gui>Best Fit</gui></guiseq>.</p>

<p>You can zoom in and out to show more or less of a picture on the screen at once. This is useful if you want to see a big picture in its entirety, or if you want to inspect the fine details of a picture.</p>

30

31
<gui>Enlarge the image</gui> icon, and to zoom out click the <gui>Shrink the

<p>To view the picture in its original, unscaled size, click
40
<guiseq><gui>View</gui><gui>Normal Size</gui></guiseq>. This is the same as
