For those who are not frequent visitors at the iRex forum (like myself), here is tribble's answer:

Ok, for those of you, that are wondering, why their zooms seem so random, comes a little explanation on how the zoom mechanism works:
1. you darw some shape on the screen.
2. a bounding box is calculated.
3. the length diagonal of that bounding box is compared to the diagonal of the screen, and that ratio is used as zoom ratio. If your diagonal has a significantly different angle, than that of the zoom seems quite random.
4. the bounding box center is centered on the screen and zoomed to the calculated ratio.
5. screen refresh
Also the maximum zoom level is at about 140% at the moment in respect to the papersize of the document.
So you can zoom only to 140% from page fit with a 122x149mm document, but you can zoom into more detail, if the same information is on a 244x298mm document.
I hope, i lifeted your confusion.
If you want to try for yourself:
Just dra along any of the black line and you will end up with about the grey area as zoom window.

here youll get to see the full grey area (file size 244x298)
http://www.cogitatio.de/downloads/iliad-diagonal.pdf
here you almost get to see the full grey area(122x149)
Now try in landscape mode Smile
