+ Message view: removed "rewrap text when zooming in" in order to better preserve scroll position.

When scroll position jumped (esp. with auto-fit enabled), it was the opposite of what one wants when zooming in - i.e. to more clearly see a particular part of message content.

Please keep in mind that Aqua Mail still has the "auto-fit" option but it'll only be done once, during initial rendering; and that still supports "mobile optimized emails" (CSS media queries) better than Gmail app does.

---

+ Отображение сообщений: удалили "перенос текста при увеличении масштаба" чтобы лучше сохранять положение прокрутки.

Ранее когда прокрутка "прыгала", результат "увеличения масштаба" получался совсем не тот что нужно, то есть при намерении получше рассмотреть какую-то часть сообщения внезапно отображалась какая-то другая.

Напомню что функция "авто-масштабирование" никуда не делась, но теперь выполняется только один раз; и что Аква по-прежнему работает с сообщениями "оптимизированными для мобильных экранов" лучше чем приложение Gmail.

I'm afraid that, for me, this is an extremely backward step, as I frequently zoom in to long messages and having them rewrap makes them readable. Would it not be possible to retain it as an option?

If this change stays, I'm afraid that AquaMail will have one less user.

Our thinking was:

The "jump" (losing scroll position) was making the "zoom in on some portion of text" use case almost useless - as you won't see what you were zooming in on, but rather some other, unrelated portion of the message.

Now that the scroll position is retained a lot better -- zooming in on some portion of a message should actually be more useful, not less.

Re: In "Back up and restore" window - Translation of "Back up accounts":

Thank you.

And "restore accounts" -- I assume in FR it's "Restaurer les comptes", what about AR?

I prefer to have the text wrap option on zoom functionality. Hope to have this back.

Thanks!

Thank you very much for the explanation.

I'm afraid that (for my use case), retaining the scroll position is not something that I'm concerned about, whereas there are times that I want to quickly increase the size of the font in the message, and have it re-wrap.

How difficult would it be to retain this as an option?

As Philip stated, I agree. The "rewrap text when zooming in" was one of the key features that led to my purchase of the pro version. I believe that it is understood by most of us users, that zooming in will cause scrolling issues. I suspect that those of us that use email a lot greatly  appreciate the ability to zoom dynamically at any time without needing to scroll left and right to read a message with small font sizes.

I also ask the question: Would it be possible to leave that new improvement as an option rather than removing it completely? Without intending to be overly critical, losing that feature would likely be a showstopper for me.

We had a fair number of complaints that "zooming in causes a jump, can't read what I wanted to" and "can't zoom in on an image because it shrinks back" (this was another effect of reflow).

It sounds as if there are two populations of users, with diametrically opposed requirements.

Is there any possibility of making this an Option, so that those of us who require the old behaviour can have it back again?

Just to add my 2 cents, - I see in my use of Aquamail how both ways are important for me in different situations.
If I am trying to zoom in while trying to read some illegible portion of the messages (especially if it is HTML-formatted, and has some tiny font portion, or when there is an image), I'd indeed prefer for the focus to remain in the same part of the message.
However, if I just want to read the entire message zoomed in (due to a combination of several factors: tiny font throughout the message, my eyes are tired, and I don't have reading glasses), - then I'd prefer it to be reflowed, as it is annoying to scroll it horizontally for each line.

So, I think both options are important.
Moreover, in a perfect world, I'd prefer to have a quick-access toggle-switch button on the screen in the message view after zooming in: "re-flow/do not reflow". But given the fact that it takes the valuable real estate and that this switching is not needed too frequently (that's for me so far, - some people may need it, - or I might need it when my vision worsens) by many enough users - I would not expect or even really propose to have that toggle switch on the screen, but just in the settings.

Volume buttons to adjust font size still do work.

They -- already -- do not take up valuable screen space.

And a lot of times (not always, but often) this does reflow the content.

Thank you, Kostya, I am using the volume buttons. Unfortunately,  in some messages,  the lines start overlapping even at the first step up in the font size.
Different tricks for different messages.
