Zoom in pdf viewer

Hi,

I am using the pdfviewer to show pdf's through base64, but due to the size of one PDF page, it is not always possible to actually read the pdf. It would be great if there was a zoom function in the top bar of the pdfviewer, so that difficult pdf's like this could still be read.

I have included a picture of the pdfviewer with the pdf that is causing the issue.

Thanks @rikkesborup and @PatrickMast - I can see how zooming in would be really useful for many PDF files :slightly_smiling_face: I've logged this as a feature request internally, and while I don't have a timeframe to share yet, this is linked so that we can keep you updated here on any movement toward implementing this improvement! :mag:

Many thanks @kbn - we would love to have such a zooming feature for the PDFViewer component, too :slight_smile:

Happy to share that this feature was shipped by our eng team in the Cloud release last week, so it is available to everyone on Cloud now! On Self-hosted, this is in the Edge release 3.90 as noted in the release notes. It should also be safe to assume this will also make it's way into the Q4 2024 Stable release for Self-hosted Retool as well :rocket:

The update adds both a rotate button and zoom controls to the PDF component. Accessible via the Add-ons menu:

Thank you for this Feature Request! Appreciate you sharing this feedback and expressing your interest in the feature @rikkesborup @PatrickMast @philipp-pineapple !

Another user-requested Retool feature addition in the books! :clap: :open_book: :white_check_mark:
