Follow-up Comment #14, bug #20317 (project mypaint):
> Do you mean to minimize the frequency of changes in scale in the preview
window
Yes. The way this frequently changes when I change the zoom of the main view
seems a somewhat perverse behaviour for a preview window. I think I expect it
to not draw attention to itself as I'm painting, beyond showing the actual
changes in content.

and ◮ when X-flipped? This seems like a pretty good, intuitive choice to me
:)
>I'm happy with this. Presumably it would make your other objections vanish?
:)
Pretty much. I wouldn't be personally effected but I think that the current
frequency of zoom changes would still generate visual noise for users who
didn't disable the preview rectangle.
> what do you think?
So whichever area of the preview is 'more' offscreen gets chosen as the
indicated corner?
I really like this, actually.
> Sorry, but that is not the intent of the preview window, and I don't think
we should go there. The preview does not (in theory) ever have a scale which
is zoomed in further than that zoom which is necessary to show the document as
a whole, and the intent of the frame is of course to allow the user to choose
the size of the document as a whole.
Noooope.
What I mean was exactly 'content as defined by the frame'. When I define a
frame, I have the expectation that the contents of said frame will be fitted
as close as possible to the edges of the preview area.
