Got a cool idea that should be in R'n'D? Let's hear it!

Adjust level scale to fit within viewing area without scrolling.

I'd be neat if there was an option to auto scale the view so that the level perfectly fits within it(enlarge/shrink, keep ratio), letter/pillar boxing if needed. Sort of like a lot of image viewers do. There could be a shortcut key available to toggle for this, and options for integer scaling.

I've been playing using this theme.
Widescreen Mode 1920x1080 (zip)
viewtopic.php?t=2221
sometimes with a copy of the file modified for 2048x1080, and 3840x2160

I tried out some of the levels from

At least some of these sets have their own custom theme, and aren't compatible with the 1920x1080 theme above.
This theme feels like the viewable playfield at one time of 15x13 is way too small for me.
Tried modifying the theme for a larger viewing, but results weren't as good as I'd like.
Life is partially trying to strike a balance between generating new things/ideas, and making sure they are good/organized. These extremes can be said to between gibberish mess and nothing said/done.

I had extracted these to the ~/.rocksndiamonds directory, choosing the overwrite option. For this extracted order does matter. I just re-extracted the rnd_jue_bdem-1.0.0 and the view changed to a larger 21x17. Also these come with a executable rnd_jue_something that can be run independent of regular rocksndiamonds with a different user name.
