Keeping Focus on a file while changing Views.

I often use "Computer" in Vista to view my photos within "Pictures". I also
often use the slider under "Views" to enlarge the thumbnails to preview them
easier prior to opening in Photoshop. Is there a way to keep focus on a
selected picture while enlarging the view within the window?

Instead of using the View Menu, hold down the CTRL key use the Mouse Wheel
to enlarge or reduce the size of the thumbnails. The selected picture file
should maintain focus.
