Zoom in Effects Previews

[UnAngelito]

I consider that it would be useful to be able to zoom on the Preview screens like when applying some effect.
Actually, if you want to apply an effect to something and you want to notice the difference more closely, you must stretch the window.

I admit that it becomes situational. You don't need it if you do projects smaller than 100 pixels or something like that.

Once I made a drawing that consisted of several small characters on the screen and I had to stretch the window to better appreciate the changes applied such as colors effects.

Hy, as a workaround to this. If you are working on a single frame (with multiple layers), you could try out layer effects.
They are basically the same thing, just

• initially non-destructive
• immediately previewed on canvas
• can be applied destructively (like image effects)

The Transform, Color, Procedural, Blur are actually categories for the effects.

For example the outline effect is in the Procedural section

Is there some specific Image Effect you're looking for?

No, I consider that the effects of software are excellent. And they are what I need.

I would only like the previews shown when applying the effects could be made zoom for cases in which it is difficult to notice details due to size.

For example (191x107):

This is the same window but stretched.

As you can see, is more noticeable when stretched and could be useful being able to zoom. Like the "Canvas Preview" and "Second Canvas" Panels.

i meant like this (The canvas ITSELF becomes a preview).

below, i recreate the same Image effect as a layer effect
(btw, regarding the original issue i-e having zoom capability "inside the Image effect dialog", i have no idea if it's planned or not)

AAaahhhh, I didn't try that. You talked about the FX button. I forgot that buton...
Now I can make outlines (and colors and that) faster. And they can be applied in groups! Pro.

Thanks. ╰⁠(⁠⸝⁠⸝⁠⸝⁠´⁠꒳⁠`⁠⸝⁠⸝⁠⸝⁠)⁠╯

By the way, seeing that 95% of my complaint has been solved, I wonder if I should close this discussion or leave it open in case of confirming or rejecting the idea of ​​adding zoom in Effect Previews.
