Zooming in, in Windows Photo Gallarey

I just got Microsoft Wireless 1000 mouse which came with my desktop package, i was just wondering, is the only way to zoom into a photo on Photo Gallery is to use the Zoom bar down the bottom, because i swear with the old mouse i could scroll and it would zoom in.

So can you only zoom in with the scroll bar or is there something wrong with my mouse? It scrolls fine on most other pages

Hi mate . I can zoom in a picture with mouse wheel if the document is active . If you are sure that the picture window is the active window and still it is not zooming in with the wheel, you may get it changed .

It doesnt work, while the picture window is active, but it works on all other programs such as IE or Explorer or a word Doc.

Do i have to enable it?

The mouse came from the Microsoft Desktop 800 package

So it scrawls perfectly, but not zooming in ?

As far as I know , these mice are not to be enabled . They works just fine when attached . I guess there is a problem . To be sure that your windows is problem free, you may have a SFC scan . In the mean time we may seek for expert opinions :)

Hi! Mitch,

1.) So can you only zoom in with the scroll bar or 2.) is there something wrong with my mouse?
Yes to #1, and No to #2.

From what I found https://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/features/zoom.mspx
It sounds like MS does not make a mouse with the zoom feature anymore. It is now located on the keyboard. :shock: :(

Probably the only way you could get it back would be to get a new wireless that has that feature.
Hey! Wait a minute....Do you still have the old mouse, does it still work? Why don't you just hook it back up?

I guess MS doesn't realize there are two types of users? Mousers, and Keyboarders.

That zoom feature to my knowledge has been a mouse feature longer than a keyboard feature. It would of been nice if they made the zoom for both.

well to anak, my keyboard doesnt feature the zoom button, only button for windows are calucator, play/pause, and voloume.

For Arc, im only 14 and i, i dont tend to help people, i just tend to come on here when im borad and want something to read or when i have a problem.

with the command promt thing i got the message saying it did not find any violations.

For the person who said use my old mouse, i would but it is wired, and im in year 10 and have the desktop in my room, with it being in my only desk, so the whole idea of my getting a wirless mouse and keyboard to have a tad extra room.

Hi Mitch,

Is there a setting that allows you to configure the scroll to behave like a zoom? Perhaps under the mouse properties under control panel?

Regards,
Golden

I have the same problem, whats wrong with this mouse? There are no such settings.

I think it's just a standard Microsoft Wireless Mouse 1000 no?

I've tried 4 different Windows 7 pc's, it won't zoom in and out using the scroll wheel in Windows Picture Viewer, in other things the scroll wheels works fine...

The Wireless Desktop 800 is weird.. On Microsoft.com/Hardware there isn't even any support documentation or downloads for it.

I think the mouse must be defective as I have the same model and the zoom works on any active picture viewer.

Scrolling is one thing, zooming is entirely different! If scroll bars are showing in the window then my mouse woks for scrolling. I need to hit Ctrl + mouse wheel to get Zoom. If no scroll bars are visible then wheel on its own creates Zoom!

I think the mouse must be defective as I have the same model and the zoom works on any active picture viewer.

I went to the shop and they opened 3 brand new boxes of "Microsoft Wireless Desktop 800" which features your Microsoft Wireless 1000 mouse.

I tried all 3 on various Windows 7 laptops in the store.

NONE of the three mice zoomed in and out of Windows Picture Viewer on any Windows 7 laptop.

I bought a Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000v2 instead (which features a Microsoft Wireless/Laser mouse 5000).

Not only did this only also NOT zoom in and out of Windows Picture Viewer images using the scroll wheel, but it is also the single worst mouse I have used in over 15 years. It is bulky, weighs a ton, feels like a hemisphere (as opposed to ergonomic) and features shiny black plastic right and left click buttons?? Shiny! As in slippery! I have no idea who advised Microsoft to make these but it is a disaster.

I'm taking it back to the store and going for logitech. My fault for assuming Microsoft was like Apple all hardware&software from the same manufacturer being bound to work, etc.
