Description

When reducing size of the overview canvas, its contents zooms out to match the new extent. It's ok. But when enlarging it, the contents doesn't zoom in back. In effect, after a few resizes of QGIS window, overview map becomes unusably tiny.

History

It affects the main canvas too.

#2 Updated by Borys Jurgiel almost 16 years ago

I'd prefer to not rescale the main map at all (hovewer I understand the present behaviour) but rescale in and out the overwiew.

#3 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 15 years ago

This bug is still there in QGIS 1.2 (rev. 11005, Ubuntu 9.04).

#4 Updated by Milena Nowotarska about 15 years ago

This bug is still there in QGIS 1.4, rev. 11818; it occurs for example when switching on a docked table. The map canvas goes smaller so the scale of the map decreases.

#5 Updated by Borys Jurgiel almost 15 years ago

Jürgen, is there any quick and simple way to disable the rescaling at all or enable rescaling in both directions? I can't find it. This ugly behaviour just affect badly Quantum's look and feel ;)

Still there in trunk.

A partial work around is to toggle a layer's "Show in overview" state in the Layers context menu - this resizes the overview image.
