    Default Forgotten Trick


    I forgot about this little PC trick that can help someone see that smaller print better. Hold the control button down, then use your scrolling wheel. It will zoom in or out of the screen, depending on what direction you are scrolling.

    All ya'll older poots might try this. It is one handy item when trying to look at something.

    It is the far left button on the bottom row.

    Good call Gene! Those who don't have a scrolling wheel on their mouse can do it too. I didn't know bout the + button. Thanks!

    Your "control key/button" is the one marked "Crtl" ... bottom far left & far right, on your keyboard ... under the "Shift" keys

    Hold the "Crtl" key down, then roll your center mouse button, one click at a time ... forward will increase the print size, backward will decrease it.

    This mean you got it? Hope so, nice thing to know about. Not the head thing, the zoom thing.
