(F10)
: zoom
Changes the screen resolution to magnify/restore your computer's screen view.
The magnified view is not as clear as the standard view, as it is implemented by applying a lower resolution
to the computer screen with a higher resolution.
This key combination may not work with graphic images as it magnifies the screen view by changing the
resolution.
The location and size of software windows may change when the screen view is magnified or the standard
view is restored because pressing this key combination changes the resolution.
When your computer's screen view is magnified, switching the view to the external display disables the
function and restores the standard view.
