How can I quickly zoom in on the Mac OS X version of Word without having to use the menu?
(I'm using the Mac version MS Word 2011)I used to happily use the wheel mouse to zoom but, after upgrading to the Mac Magic mouse (using only finger slide movement to scroll and pan) I can no longer hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and roll the mouse to zoom (driving me crazy) and I can't see a useful keyboard shortcut and the zoom slider bar in the lower right of the Word screen isn't practical (in my experience). Is there any way to zoom in on the Mac Version of Microsoft Word 2011 without resorting to using a menu?
Go to System Preferences on a Mac. Go to Accessibility. Go to the Zoom tab. Go the tic box for Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom: choose control on the drop down menu and you get your old favorite feature back. Now when you hold down control and use the scroll wheel you will be zooming in and out magnification-wise with your monitor.
