No Ctrl + for zooming in in IL CS

[Georgia_A@adobeforums.com]

We just upgraded to CS and I found that the keyboard zoom-in shortcut (Ctrl +) as in ill 10.0.3 doesn't work. Now Ctrl - (minus) still works in CS but Ctrl + doesn't.

Is there another zoom-in keyboard shortcut besides Ctrl Shift left click?

Thanks!

Hi

Control = is the default zoom in CS. You can change it back to + through the "Keyboard Shortcuts" settings in Edit in the main menu. You can also see here all the shortcut settings and ammend them as required.

Hey thanks, that really helped me out!

It is? CTRL + and CTRL - both work the same in Illustrator CS for me as they did in previous versions.

If you look at the View menu it lists CTRL + and CTRL - as the keyboard shortcuts, but if you look at Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts it does indeed say CTRL = and CTRL -, although in the "symbol" column it lists a "+" and not an "=".

Georgia,

For some reason the numeric keyboard Ctrl + doesn't work. But the keyboard Control + does. Ctrl - does work in both keyboards, however (and that's with or without Num Lock on/off on numeric keyboard).

What I always found useful was to use Ctrl + Spacebar to zoom on an illustration and then use Ctrl + "1" to reset the page orientation.
I find it much faster than the "Ctrl+/-" shortcuts.
