Screen Magnifier
 

A good screen magnifier, found this through the MyMsMyWay page.
http://magnifier.sourceforge.net/#download
It is a tray icon that you click on, a window opens that follows the mouse. You can set the amount of magnification you want. Clicking on the screen turns it off.

Isn't it easier to hit Control and the Plus sign?? Then you keep hitting it, and the screen gets bigger and bigger.

This is the best thing someone on this forum ever told me.

Because sometimes, when I'm at a website and the print on the screen is teeny tiny, I just do the control and the plus sign and BAM, it's all nice and big.

Mel, I've used that shortcut before, but I'm typing on DH's laptop right now and it didn't work.

Thanks, Bill! (I love you so, I always will...) :grin:

Holy cow, I thought this control plus thing worked on every computer (including laptops). I was planning on getting a laptop someday and doing the control plus thing.
Good thing I just found out.

Thanks very much for the info.

take care, Mel

Most browsers at the top toolbar/menu bar in the View section have a Zoom feature {FireFox}, or Increase/ Decrease Text {Internet Explorer}

FireFox has an extension called No Squint that you can get- then there is a button you can click when needed to change sizes.

On my laptop - which has VISTA operating system - Control + works perfectly for enlarging (and Control - for decreasing).

I never knew about it - til now. Way cool :D!!! Thank you.
