It would be better and more consistent to be able to close the magnifier with the same shortcut.

Hello, elektroschrott

Thank you for the excellent suggestion, I have created a formal feature request ticket for this item, hopefully we can see some action on it in the future.

Good morning! Thanks for the correction with the shortcut for the loupe. I can find the entries `cmd.view.loupe` and `cmd.tool.loupe`.
But the first one has no function at all for me and the second one only lets you start the loupe, and then switch between the loupe and the main window. However, it is still not possible to actually close the loupe again via the shortcut. Or have I overlooked something?

Hi elektroschrott,

indeed the ticket was only recently reopened. It has not been resolved yet. I have raise the priority a notch as a result of this discussion but at the end of the day delivery of this will be at the discretion of the development team leader.

I hope that helps.
Best regards
