Zoom with the mouse wheel - so it'll work

If you want to zoom with the mouse wheel, you only need to do a little trick. In this practical tip, we will tell you how it works.

Zoom with the mouse wheel - in and out

If you don't want to constantly press any buttons or make settings on websites or programs to increase the content, just follow this tip:

• Hold down the [Ctrl] key and use your mouse wheel to scroll up (zoom in) or down (zoom out).
• Alternatively, you can also use the key combination [Ctrl] and [+] or [-] to zoom in or out.

Keyboard shortcuts for every occasion

You can not only zoom, but also do many other things with keyboard shortcuts:

• Here are the best shortcuts for Windows 7.
• In this article we show you the best keyboard shortcuts for Windows, Office and Co.
• We'll also show you which commands you can use Mac OS X to shortcut.

Note that you cannot zoom equally on every website. If content is integrated via Flash, it can happen, for example, that the window of a video enlarges, but the video itself always remains at the original size.
