Windows 10: Photos cannot zoom or scroll for some wepb images

When viewing some wepb images it's not possible to use the zoom function or display the original size, likewisewhen having selected to display the original size for an image where it works in the same folder and then switching to that webp image arrow keys or mouse said wepb image will be be displayed in its original size but neither is it possible to zoom to fit nor to move the canvas with the hand control.This seems random with some webp images from various internet sites having this issue while some others don't. Even in a batch of 4 ai images generated at the same time from the same webs

Tablet mode Scroll Often Zooms

Hi Mark,

Are you using the touchpad to scroll? Could it be that the Pinch Zoom feature is enabled? To check, follow these steps:

1. Press Start button on the keyboard, type Touchpad settings and select the top most search result.
2. Scroll down until you find the Pinch to zoom option.
3. Uncheck the box next to Pinch to zoom.
4. Close the window and check if the changes are effective.

Let me know how it turns out.

 

Photo/WPV default zoom level


Someone else may know of a way to do it with the Photos app or Windows Photo Viewer, but I'm not aware of a way myself. In the Photos app you can double-click photos to toggle between 100% view, which makes it pretty useable. The Photos app used to over-sharpen photos at 100% view, but looking at it just now I think they may have fixed that since.

Occasionally I use FastStone Image Viewer to do things other Image Viewers can't, but I'm no expert with it as I only use it for certain projects. However, I've just looked and it will allow you to view all images at 100% view by default if you want.

Settings > Settings > Viewer Tab > Auto Image Size > Actual Size





To scroll through images, double click a thumbnail (which will open it in full-screen viewer mode), then use either the mouse scroll wheel to scroll through images, or moving the mouse to the very top of the screen to bring up the thumbnail list. CTRL + mouse wheel will zoom in and out.

As an image viewer it's pretty hardcore, it's like the software equivalent to a Swiss Army Knife, LOL. They do a portable version too if you just want to experiment with it first without actually installing it. Here's their website:
