zooming in

Post by nick@dunsdale »

Many of you may already know this.

But if you dont ...........

If you want to zoom in on a image, or scanned txt or even increase the size of txt on any web page

You can do this by holding down the ctrl key and using your scroll wheel on your mouse.

This is handy when you want to increase the detail on an image

remember you need to keep your finger on the CTRL key.

This also works in most windows programs and within folders etc on windows computers.

The other way in Windows 10 is to click on the three dots at the top right. A drop down menu with various settings and options appears including a zoom feature.

This also works by holding the Ctrl key and using the + or - keys, to return to the default size, hold Ctrl and the zero key.
