Hi Brian, you will be aware that I have looked at the in-built Zoom on my
Mac. While it reaches a satisfactory magnification level for me what I have
found that I need to use a mouse to get around the screen due to the
magnification. To this end, I have used an Apple Magic mouse which is a
bluetooth mouse. What I have encountered is that the mouse movement is very
sluggish indeed so unlike using a mouse on my Windows machine with
Supernova. Now my question to you is if the student found the same problem
with the mouse and furthermore with Zoomtext is there a sluggish mouse on
high magnification?

Hello Eleanor,
On my Mac running OS 10.9.2 I am able to activate the Zoom hotkeys by going
to System Preferences / Accessibility / Zoom. That same preference pane
lists the available hotkeys for toggling Zoom and for zooming in and out.
Are these hotkeys not working on your system?

Hi Brian, I wish to try both forms of magnification but I have asked on a
few lists about a hot key to put on magnification but nobody has
responded. I am fairly sure that a key combination on the fly using one of
the function keys brings it up and increases it, once I try this out I
will then move to the Zoomtext but as you say a hefty price at £375
sterling.
