Thanks for making such a fantastic product by the way.
I've written a really extended version of this report at
<a href="https://tomachi.co/review-libre-office-zoom-in-out-bug/">https://tomachi.co/review-libre-office-zoom-in-out-bug/</a> and to save you the
drama of reading it all in here I will just post the very short, action
summary, and steps to reproduce. Checkout the blog though for the epic study of
this 8 yerar old bug!
Steps to reproduce
On macOS 10.14.6 I'm running LibreOffice version 6.3.6.2 last modified 23rd
April 2020. This open bug appears first in 2012 and is still open.
open either Writer, Spreadsheet etc but not Draw
try to Zoom In/Zoom Out without touching your mouse. Only Draw works, but it
uses the wrong native macOS combo.
Jarring First Time User Experience
if i can only submit one image with this bud report this is it
Someone new to Libre Office Spreadsheet program would find it pretty
in-your-face jarring to get this result, as I just did:
[screenshot] shows a Zoomed up capture of Spreadsheets. cells 2, 3, and 4 have
been blown away when I try all the usual suspects:
[command][=], [command][=],[control][=], [control][=] one of the combos I
mashed it actually causes the "Insert Cells" modal dialog to appear. Luckily I
am big and tough and don't mind reading the manual, but in this instance I
realised it was going to be more complex. I figured if I wait a few years.....
well it's 8 years later and I'm still waiting. Hence this extreme review / bug
report.
Hands Free Zoom
I wish to be be able to literally turf my mouse into the next room, and still
be able to zoom in / zoom out the display using only keyboard shortcuts. This
likely affects macOS version as last time I checked Control-+ was working fine
to zoom in on my Linuxbox. The terms "zoom in" and "zoom out" do appear in the
app at various places, and it is these two actions that I would like keyboard
shortcuts for.
Relabel (or delete) Zoom In --> Print Preview Zoom In
Relabel (or delete) Zoom Out --> Print Preview Zoom Out
Introduce new Zoom In / Zoom Out action feature
Create macOS friendly keyboard shortcuts showing in view menu of Command+/-
Default to 'Show Shortcuts in Menus' set in Preferences... View

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any app, Writer, Calc especially, Draw
2. Through your mouse away
3. Try to zoom in / zoom out. See? not so easy.
Actual Results:
This can cause a fairly damaging over-write to cells in Calc. See the
screenshot.
Expected Results:
Display is zoomed-in or zoomed out.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
