bzimport added a project: MediaViewer.
bzimport set Reference to bz59936.
bzimport added a subscriber: Unknown Object (MLST).

Media Viewer can be enhanced by offering a "magnifying glass" icon or another tool to allow viewing segments of images in full resolution without the quality loss of zooming in.

Just had a question in order to fix this bug can i add some enhancement like: http://www.ajax-zoom.com/examples/example20.php ...... not strictly this enhancement

We plan to "fix" this by adding a link to the image element itself that leads to the original size of the image. Different solutions like actually zooming in on parts of the image are farther out on our priority list IMO.

Change 108204 had a related patch set uploaded by Apsdehal:
Go to original image link added, as well the zoom

The zooming feature has started being spec'ed: https://wikimedia.mingle.thoughtworks.com/projects/multimedia/cards/167 but even the UI/UX design side of things isn't final yet. This ability is definitely coming in one form or another anyway.

Thanks you for the update, Gilles. It will be a nice enhancement over current media viewing options (thumbnail, screenfit, full resolution).
