Zoom video

If you use a Mac, did you know that Mac OS X has a built-in screen-zoom feature? It’s designed as part of the disabled-accessibility features of the operating system, but Paul finds it’s very useful for enlarging those teeny-tiny controls so many DAW and plugin manufacturers include with their products, especially on a large screen.

Check out the video (1 minute 3 seconds) to find out how to set the zoom up, and how Paul uses it.

UPDATE: When Apple released the Mac OS X 10.4.8 update at the end of September 2007, it included a nice preference setting to have zooming turned on by default, and controlled using your mouse scroll wheel.
