Pinch to zoom start zoomed out?

[David T.]

Is there any way on this demo - http://demos.kendoui.com/mobile/view/zoomable.html - to have the image start zoomed out? 

I tried width=100%, but then it cuts off the detail above and beyond however many pixels wide the display is.  (In other words, if I zoom in on the image, I don't get additional detail - it just blurs.)

I'd like to have the image start zoomed out with the user able to zoom in on it ... not start zoomed out with the user only seeing the upper left-hand corner of the image to start with.

Thanks.

Hello David,

I am afraid the described feature is not available in Kendo UI, however this idea sounds good and I will suggest to submit it as a feature request at our UserVoice portal. This way the community would be able to vote and comment it and if the suggestion gains popularity we will consider its implementation. Thank you in advance.

Is there any kind of workaround or way it might be accomplished with CSS?  The feature is pretty useless for most practical applications unless you are dealing only with tiny images.  If you go to the camera app on your phone and look at your photos, they show up screen-sized and then you can zoom in if desired.  If they started all the way zoomed in and you had to zoom all the way out to see each one, that would be rather obnoxious.

Hi David,

I am afraid at this point there is no suitable workaround I can suggest, but we will definitely consider the implementation of this feature. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience caused.
