zoom

[Guest]

Does anyone remember how to add the zoom feature to the right click on the
mouse? I used to have it where you could right click on a pic then zoom in on
it,
Thanks Bill

It would depend on the mouse software giving it that capability. A basic
mouse right click brings up the context menu, but not much else, but the
function can be programmed into it as long as the software supports this
type of function.

You'll need a mouse like IntelliMouse (Microsoft) or one of the logitech
mouse products etc I expect.

That was an old IE 4 Powertoy. I don't think these are available any longer and not sure if they would work with IE6.

In IE7, if you hold Ctrl, the scroll wheel on your mouse zooms in and out
on the entire page. I'm not sure about using this function on a single
picture, but maybe you could middle-click to open the picture in a new tab,
then use the zoom function on that tab.

In IE7, if you hold Ctrl, the scroll wheel on your mouse zooms in and
out on the entire page.

Note that this is not just in IE7, This is a Windows standard and also
works in IE6 as well as in most other applications--Word, Excel, etc., as
well as in many non-Microsoft applications, such as WordPerfect.
