I’m on the latest build- 2022.0.5
I couldn’t find any other posts talking about this.
This is new to me, though I never was aware that there was a slider to set your document as a certain zoom level, as it always fit the document canvas to my screen. Recently though, any project I’ve opened, and any fresh start up would open at a very low res and the document slider zoomed to 2. This seams to only happen on my desktop ( as of late ) in which I’ve always used a 42" 4k monitor. No matter what the original project’s res was set as, it always , always reset it’s document res to the screen’s res, until now, where on a fresh start would open on the same res of w- 1701 x h-1000. It baffled me for hours why the document all of a sudden looked so pixelated and low res. I noticed that the zoom level was set to 2 every time I pressed on the new document button, as if the WSize does absolutely nothing, or rather that it does work, but not as actual current screen size, but zoomed to 2 "EVERY time, which I would think is giving me a low res version of the actual screen size, EVERY time. But as I wasn’t aware how zbrush actually starts a document whether from a fresh start or opening a project file, I’m not sure if it’s actually standard.
The funny thing is that the laptop doesn’t behave that way, albeit on a smaller 27" 1440 monitor. The zoom level no matter what res set on, the zoom slider always starts at 0.1, no matter if it’s a fresh start or opening a project, as I’ve always been use to.
Now the even funnier thing is that I’ve reinstalled ZB many times, until I decided to actually re install Windows ( 10 pro, including all hardware and video drivers up to date ) just to see if it does the same thing. Call me silly and over the top but lo and behold it kept the behavior. I uninstalled zb 2022.0.5 and installed 2021.0.1 and bam, the same thing.
I suspect two things.
There’s a bug on 0.5 and it corrupts any config, even if you install a previous build. That’s just me speculating, but again, I wasn’t even aware of how zb starts a document until having an idea now, so I have no proof.
I just want to see if anyone has this issue, or to tell me whether that is all normal behavior and I was just missing something all that time. But even in this ask zb tutorial you clearly see that the doc zoom slider was set to 0.1 from the start and when resized and he clicked on new doc, it was kept at 0.1. So I’m just very confused and very tired.
If it is an issue, should I start a support ticket?
Sorry for the wall of text, it has been a very long 24 hours of off and on tinkering.
