In a world where we don’t all have 20/20 vision or better we sometimes need to adjust our screen in order to see words and pictures more clearly. Many sites now offer options for text size without effecting the size of the images. But since these are not universal, it’s good to know that modern browsers understand this and have created controls to help us adjust the size of what we see. Here are a few tricks that work in all those modern browsers.
- Type too small? If you’re using the Windows operating system, try holding down your Control (CTRL) key while pressing and releasing your + (plus) key.
- For a Mac use the Command key with the plus key (+). You can do this as many times as it takes.
- If the type is too big or you can’t see the whole picture, try holding down your Control (CTRL) key while pressing and releasing the minus key (-).
- For a Mac use the Command key with the minus key.
- For a faster response roll your mouse’s scroll wheel back and forth while hold down your Control key.
As always, You can do it!
