Any Way to Zoom Magnifier Tool With Mouse?

Hello I use the magnifier in "all screen" default mode. I would like to know if I can zoom in and zoom out on a mouse gesture/shortcuts. Thanks

You can if your mouse has the functionality to do what you want.

Computer Mouse, Wireless Mouse, Bluetooth Mouse | Microsoft Hardware

This application looks pretty nifty though: http://www.magictoolbox.com/magiczoomplus/

I have logitech anywhere mouse. How can I zoom in and zoom out without going on the magnify icon (and without touching the keyboard)? Thanks

Hold the Ctrl key and use the mouse wheel.

Hold the Ctrl key and use the mouse wheel.

it doesn't zoom in and out the magnify. Ctrl+scroll it's a browser function.

You should be able to change the button assignments of the mouse in its control panel, just select an appropriate button (inc. wheel) for the function you want. Note that changes take place immediately.

If you haven't found the help you need, here are some 'work-arounds' using the Magnifier and your system settings:

To Magnify Entire Page: Start, Search pane, and type: magnifier. When it comes up click the plus (+) sign. The entire page will magnify. OR go to: Control Panel, All Control Panel Items, Ease of Access Center, Make Your Computer Easier to Use, Start Magnifier.

16. Magnifier – To Magnify a Certain Portion of the Screen - go to Start, Search pane, and type: magnifier. Click the program at the top. The Magnifier can be set to Docked Mode which places a re-sizable window at the top of the screen that follows the cursor. (To read more about Magnifier go to Start, click "Help & Support" on the right hand side, type in "magnifier.") Magnifier is actually located at: Start, All Programs, Accessories, Ease of Access, Magnifier.

Did you install a Logitech driver for this particular Logitech model?

If you have this driver installed, then go to the mouse properties in control panel, select logitech specific settings and assign zoom function to the wheel.

You may have to uncheck the Microsoft Office settings in the mouse control panel.

Can I change keyboard shortcuts for the magnifier?

 

[Colmart]

There is only one which works for Win7 with one key and mouse:

Hold the Cntrl key and scroll mouse.

Open magnifier tool and try ctrl+scrol. It doesn't work. The short cuts for magnifier zoom is win (+/-) Make items on the screen appear bigger (Magnifier) I use full screen mode

to change the shortcut keys for magnifier search for it in start menu ,when it appears then right click it and select properties. and enter the keys of your choice in the shortcut window.although it will make it ctrl and alt then the key of choice by default.



i wouldnt change them though as you lose the shortcut keys to close it ,ie win and -.

also when the magnifier is open and in lens mode then pressing the win key and + zooms it, keep pressing + for more zoom

thanks for your tip. But. I don't even know how to fill it. There is only 1 space to fill. I want to set it in order to Zoom +/- = Ctrl + (scroll up/down). What have I to write in there? Thanks

I respect your opinion, but I would change it in order to improve my own user experience and personal workflow. If you know how to change and want to share it I would be really grateful. Thanks
