Posted: Mon Sep 26, 2005 10:44 pm Post subject: A desktop zoom-out tool.. |
|
|
I'm frustrated searching the net for a tool that does what I want...maybe somebody on here has done it or knows how to do it with AHK.
I want to make my desktop a much larger size without changing my screen res because it is maxed out already. I know about virtual desktop managers and thats not what I'm talking about.
I wish to be able to have an enormous desktop size and have the ability to quickly zoom out or in. I want to be able to zoom out to see the entire desktop (which of course would look grainy at that point..) and to be able to zoom to a normal size (not revealing the entire desktop) or even zoom further in case I need to see small details.
I also want it to work without a "magnifier" window...I just want the WHOLE screen to operate this way.
Got any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jason |

| That would be great! On my high resolution monitor the tray icons and the taskbar icons are so small, that I cannot recognize them from normal distance. If I hover the mouse over these, a magnifier glass could show them enlarged. If I press a mouse button and turn the wheel the screen will zoom in and out around the mouse pointer. I am willing to buy such a piece of SW if anyone has heard of anything similar. |

na!1
When i heared of spereXP i was like "wWOOOww"
but it doesnt help much cuz the only thing it does it makes "screenshots" of your current windows and puts them in the background...
its not comfy either.
it lacks on real decent ways of navigation and it messes up many windows when you use it..
and besides, if you want a window to be active you have to go through the pain of double clicking it...
my rating 3/10 Loww... looks good, smells good, but more of a waste of time...  _________________ And i say: where there is a problem , there is a solution.(well some where that is.)
