Pic Mgr +/- zoom does not work; why?

[Joe User]

I have MS Office Picture Manager SP3 (11.8161.8172). The zoom + and -

buttons do not work when I left-click them with the mouse. But I can drag

the zoom slider by holding down the left mouse button.



Any idea what the problem might be with the zoom + and - buttons? More

importantly, any idea how to fix it?



I am sure the zoom + and - buttons worked in the past. But Pic Mgr is not

something that I use frequently. The buttons might have worked before I

installed SP3 and not afterwards. But I can assert that with impunity.

They aren't buttons; it's just the slider.



Usability issue.

Oh, okay. I coulda sworn I had used the + and - buttons before. My bad.

As I said, I don't use Pic Mgr very often.



Thanks for the explanation.

I click those suckers every time I use it. You'd think they'd work like zoom

controls in most other apps...

FWIW the "+" and "-" keys work (both sets) and also clicking on the

"line" the slider is on, will accomplish what the "buttons" indicate.
