Of course you have. You know the point is in the middle of the screen,
so you can manually zoom to it. It is just not convenient :-)

Oh, you are right! But then, wouldn't it be sensible to have the program do that for me? Maybe zoom to a certain scale that is related to say the size of the bounding box of the layer? So the scale would be different for a layer containing global disaster points compared to one containing local addresses.

Hi Marco,

of course it is undefined, but IMHO something should happen if you
click "zoom to selected". If I have a cloud of points and nothing
happens I have no means to see the particular point I selected and
that is worse than "unconvenient".
How does other GIS software handle this problem?

Hi Bernhard

If one point is selected, it is somehow undefined how far to zoom in.
Earlier behaviour was to just zoom in by a factor of two. This however
is very unconvenient if you repeatedly select entries in the attribute
table and click 'zoom to selected'.

Hi Gino,

can you confirm what I described (_one_ point selected, does not zoom)?

I tried with f21562c on OpenSuse 64 bit.

I observed the same behavior (qgis master) with two points alligned

Dear devs,

today I stumbled on a strange behaviour when zoooming to a point.
To reproduce: load a point layer, select one feature in the table
and
click "Zoom to selection". The result is the same as if clicking
"Pan map
to Selection", i.e the map is panned but not zoomed.
I _think_ this is because the bounding box of the selected feature
has a
width and height of 0. Try iface.activeLayer().
boundingBoxOfSelected().width()/.height() in the Python console.
Geometrically speaking this is correct but as the zoom to selected
function builds on a bounding box with width/height> 0 the outcome
for the
user is bad.
My suggestion would be to define a small rectangle around the
bounding
boxes' center if it has size 0 in the zoomToSelected function.

Tried with QGIS 2.0.1 and current master

Shall I file a ticket for this?

Bernhard
