Live Zoom on Screen

With the Live Zoom feature of Presentation Pointer, you can zoom in and zoom out the windows and still use its usual utilities, such as the buttons, commands, context menus.

Launch Presentation Pointer and you will see the settings window opened. Click the Live Zoom button and so you can activate the Live Zoom mode. As it switches on, you can hold down the <Ctrl> key and then use the mouse scroll wheel to zoom in or out the screen. You can draw freely on the magnified screen.

Activation

There are three Magnifier modes:

Full-screen mode. In full-screen mode, your entire screen is magnified. Depending on the size of your screen and the zoom level you choose, you might not be able to see all of the screen at the same time.
Lens mode. In lens mode, the area around the mouse pointer is magnified. When you move the mouse pointer, the area of the screen that's magnified moves along with it.
Window mode. In Window mode, only a portion of the screen is magnified, leaving the rest of your desktop unchanged. You can then control which area of the screen is magnified.

By default, you should see the Ctrl + F12 key assigned as hot key, which means that pressing Ctrl + F12 once activates the Live Zoom mode. Pressing the same key again deactivates it.
