Need to Zoom in WPF WebView
Feature request (UserVoice request: )
Current behavior
Unable to zoom
Expected behavior
Able to zoom
Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions
I didn't create a user voice request for this because I'm not sure if there is already a way to do this. I am able to do this on win7/8 with WebViewCompatible by casting/using IE COM apis.

I agree, need zoom ability in the same manner as in the full MS Edge app. Presumably the Windows.Web.UI.Interop.WebViewControl.Scale property should be used to implement a zoom in/out feature the same as in the full MS Edge app, but unfortunately this Scale property exists only in WebViewControl and not in Microsoft.Toolkit.Wpf.UI.Controls.WebView 6.0.0-preview7.
Considering that WPF WebView uses WebViewControl internally, is it possible to make the WebViewControl.Scale property available in Microsoft.Toolkit.Wpf.UI.Controls.WebView ?
To clarify, a zoom feature should change the size of the webpage/content inside the WebView but not change the size of the WebView itself.
