Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

Issue:

When I create a work Item and paste (e.g. Command + V or Control + V) an image in, its creates a thumbnail. This thumbnail is 'fine' and typically to view the image you need to expand it to see the detail within the image.

However to 'full screen' the image, you need to click a very small item on hover in the top right of the image. this is hard to click, for what would be a very typical thing to click.

Secondly, if there is more than one image, you then need to close it, and click the small item on the second one and so on.

Overall imo this isnt good UI

Proposed solution:

When you paste in an image, you get a thumbnail, as per current
When you hover over an image, you get the small icons top right, as per current
If you click anywhere else on the image, it go to full screen

When in full screen, you have left right arrows to cycle through images in that work items, which are also bound to the left and right arrow keys

I think this is a relative small change, but makes a big 'real life usage' improvement to the product.
