Strange behaviour when zooming
I have been working with SH for some days, and now I am noticing a strange behaviour when zooming in: For example, an item (furniture object or a wall) is selected and in the middle of the screen at (36, 36) [I have a big model with some of the neighbour houses]. When clicking at the zoom in (or ctrl+mouse wheel up) to zoom in, the visible area moves and the middle of the screen is now at (-104, 35). So it seems the x-axis is shifted very much, depending on the x-dimension of the complete model (the bigger the model is, the more the view is shifted). You can reproduce that: just draw a square 2mx2m and zoom - nop problem. Now, draw a 20m wall to the right side, draw another square at the end and then zoom in again - now the cursor gets lost somewhere between the two squares.
So I propose the following: - when zooming in with ctrl+mousewheel, the new view is centered at the coordinates of the mouse pointer - when zooming in with the icon: the center of the old will also be the center of the new view

Re: Strange behaviour when zooming
Zooming centered on mouse location with ctrl + mouse wheel is already proposed in this request.
