Zooming the Entire Window in Photoshop

On this super quick video tutorial portrait photographer Nathaniel Dodson (from the website tutvid) demonstrates how to zoom the entire window of an image quickly in Photoshop.

The following is a cool trick that can be useful to some users in some situations. It can help you keep many images open in a more organized manner (supposedly at least) and can assist you in working on several images simultaneously.

So how do you do that – very simple – edit>preferences>tool>tick [zoom resize windows]. That’s it, you are done. When you want to return to the normal way the zoom key works just do this again and un-tick this box.
