I know there's no more memory available for the OS, but maybe this can still be fitted in.

I think it would be nice, in the TRIM page (mode+F5) to add a FULL ZOOM OUT so we dont have to press the zoom out (F2) button so many times. This could be assigned to F4, since its free right now.

Also, once pressed, F4 would become UNDO ZOOM OUT, and return you to the same zoom setting you had before pressing full zoom out.

*EDIT: The UNDO ZOOM OUT would be kept in memory until either F2 or F3 were pressed again. Then it would reset itself to FULL ZOOM OUT again. Maybe this can be improved.

I think it would be cool if implemented, would improve workflow and would reduce the stress on the F2 and F3 buttons.

Thoughts?

Sounds like a good idea for a small addition... although I could see why people might say it's not really necessary too.

Dakota tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. However, in business we often try other strategies with dead horses, including the following:

1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Say things like, "This is the way we have always ridden this horse."
4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
5. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
6. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.
7. Appointing a tiger team to revive the dead horse.
8. Creating a training session to increase our riding ability.
9. Comparing the state of dead horses in todays environment.
10. Change the requirements declaring that "This horse is not dead."
11. Hire contractors to ride the dead horse.
12. Harnessing several dead horses together for increased speed.
13. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."
14. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
15. Do a Cost Analysis study to see if contractors can ride it cheaper.
16. Purchase a product to make dead horses run faster.
17. Declare the horse is "better, faster and cheaper" dead.
18. Form a quality circle to find uses for dead horses.
19. Revisit the performance requirements for horses.
20. Say this horse was procured with cost as an independent variable.
21. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.
