Hello,

I am a bit surprised by how difficult it is to find good/simple windows screen zooming tools.

In a multiple monitor scenario I want zoom one monitors screen. I don't want scale, I don't want a magnifier window gobbling more screen space, or zooming all the monitors at once. I just want to zoom 1 screen.

ZoomIt LiveZoom almost does it. I can zoom one screen and leave it. Problem is when I take my mouse pointer off this screen... The pointer vanishes. If you follow carefully you can see W10 is aware the pointer is moving around just the visual of the pointer is gone.

Additionally, in a multi monitor scenario you cannot choose the screen to zoom. Although it seems you can horse around and move the app option window the to another monitor.... and have it zoom that monitor one time.

Can this be fixed up? (Sorry probably just dreaming figured it wouldn't hurt to ask).

Win10, 22H2, v8.01

Thank you.

    WHOA a reply! :D :D

    Yes we investigated Windows Magnifier. Its zoom features zooms all the screens at once and there are challenges around its other functionality.

    Contacting ZoomIt... That's the problem I don't know who to contact!
    I'll poke around more.

    Thank you,
