Re-scaling after zooming in/out
Emmanuel,

There's some odd behaviour in SH3D that (a) I don't understand or (b) I would like to see changed.

When I'm making a design in the 2D window it frequently happens that my design grows out of the 2D window. Let's say I (temporarily) place an object "far" from the rest of my design. The 3D window automatically zooms out to accommodate the larger surface.

However, when I delete the far object, the zoom in the 2D is not correctly reset, and in the 3D window the zoom-factor isn't reset. It's a bit difficult to explain...

Let's assume a new design, with just one object, a box of 1x1x1 meters. From that "zero-zoom" there are (say) 20 zoom-steps up, and 20 zoom-steps down. When automatically zooming far out, it is as if the zoom-factor remains locked in step 10. When I delete the far-out object, it is not possible to zoom in as far as I could before the far-out object was there.

In the 2D window there is something similar going on. When I insert an object far to the left, there appear two sliders so that you can move to the far corners of the design. But when you delete the far object, the sliders do not disappear.

I hope my explanation is understandable.
