IE Question

In IE it will resize a large picture to fit the window of the current browser...I like this.
But there are times when I want to see it in the actual size.
To do this, I hold the cursor over the picture and wait for the resize button to show up in the bottom right of the picture.

Question: Is there a keyboard shortcut for this? Just something that annoys me is waiting the 1/2 a sec for the resize buttong to appear.

No idea if there's a shortcut.

As a web designer I HATE THAT FEATURE and I disable it in my browser. I don't like the idea of spending a lot of time making a picture look good on a web page and then having IE F@CK it up by resizing it :mad

If you go to

TOOLS>INTERNET OPTIONS>ADVANCED>

then scroll down to MULTIMEDIA, there is a switch for automatic resizing.

I don't know if that will work for you.

FP, I feel the same way. When I first used IE, I thought, "man, what an annoying feature." natually I turned it off right away.

And about the shortcut, no idea here either.
