--- Comment #17 from Y <libreoffice13@sfina.com> ---
if "Optimal" is not working for you why not using "Page Width"?

because using "Page Width" results in less pixels used to display the relevant
document portion (that what is not blank, margin, or decoration) and this
results in smaller text which is more difficult to read and edit.

Whether you get a horizontal scroll bar should depend solely on the content width.

This I *almost* agree.  It should depend solely on the *relevant* content
width.  When I select "Optimal View", I am telling the software that what is
left and right of the margin is irrelevant.

Point is that we have plenty of zoom options that might have an unexpected label > but work 
perfectly in all situations.  I don't see room for improvement.

The fact that you do not see room for improvement does not mean that there
isn't any.  The claim that something works "perfectly in all situations" tells
me that you are not interested looking for something that will disturb your
picture-perfect world.  Whenever you are ready to look, I suggest that you
recreate the use-case: comparing/editing two text documents, side-by-side, on a
1440x900 13" laptop display with a trackpad.  You tell me which zoom mode,
"Optimal" or "Page Width" is preferable for editing; and you tell me which of
the same zoom modes is preferable for scrolling with the trackpad; and you tell
me if you are still of the opinion that zoom options work perfectly in all
situations.  I am of the opinion that zoom options can be improved, and the
improvement is to not scroll horizontally when the *relevant* content width fit
the viewport.
