Zoom Value display

Please, please can we have the option to show the Zoom Value (percentage) on the main toolbar. I can't use the 'out of toolbar' display as it disappears, and can't keep taking the mouse down to show the disappearing toolbar every time I want to know what zoom value I'm at.

Thanks
Mike

    Why does only tabbed view have the zoom controls in the toolbar? Do users of the other view not want to zoom in and out?? Tabbed view just uses up more room at the top of the screen.

    Ravi - Is there a real fix for this issue besides using the program in a different mode?

    Why is the toolbar for non-tabbed viewing missing this feature in the first place? Why is it different at all??

    Thanks for your suggestion. I used multi-tab mode for a couple of weeks but had to move back to single window mode as it suits my particular requirements far better.
    Difficult to understand why it would deprive users the same experience.
    Please, please add to your improvement list.

    Thanks
    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    Sorry to hear that you had trouble.
    Would suggest you to move to multi-tab mode where-in we have the same toolbar in which you can see the current Zoom %age.

    Here are the steps to move to multi-tabbed mode -
    1. Open Acrobat
    2. Hit Ctrl+K in Win / CMD+K in mac
    3. In categories select General
    4. In Basic Tools section check - "Open documents as new tabs in the same window (requires relaunch)
    5. Restart the acrobat

    Do let me know in case this does not resolve issue for you.

    Thanks,
    -Ravi Gupta
