Hi Bill.
I was tring to use the up/down buttons on the Zoom control. In fact if 
I start with it fully zoomed out(12) and click on the zoom in arrow 
once, it zooms in by an apparrantly random number of jumps. I have now 
tried using the scrollwheel on the mouse and it works ok as does using 
the zoom in/zoom out menu item and the "Z" "shift Z"method.  I have also 
just discovered that the problem only seems to occur when the PCB screen 
is maximised. When not maximised all methods work as expected.
I hope this helps you. At least I can now get round the problem but it 
would be nice to know whether it is specific to my setup. Many thanks 
for your efforts with PCB(and all the others who have contributed).
