What is this thing - slider bar in bottom right corner

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

This slider + the left /right buttons allow zooming depending on the
context :
- Icon-View : size of thumbnails.
- Preview : zoom level on the canvas
- Image Editor : zoom level on the canvas
- Light Table : zoom level on the canvas
- Import Tool : Same than Preview and Icon-view.

Best regards

Gilles Caulier
