John, yes I know all this and remember reading somewhere how to
stabilize the window somewhat by doing something with your cursor,
and that help info I am looking for. I know you are not God, otherwise
you would have known ad cold answer my question without my ever posing
it! And if you were the devil, you would try your darnest to confuse
me more so!

Marta,
I know I am not The Lord, I HAVE been called the Devil and I
certainly am not a knowledgeable source....but I always enjoy
talking with you. I don't know that I exactly understand what you
are asking, but you did say it right. When you "control scroll"
the zooming will go to the point you have placed the cursor. So, if
what you want to see is on the right of the page put the cursor
there and control scroll with your mouse (or use two fingers on the
MBP touchpad as you hold down the control key).
If you want to center a piece of text then put the cursor as near
the center of the left and right margins as possible and zoom in to
fill the screen then use the wheel to move up and down or a single
finger on the touchpad.
Now, I have done nothing more than repeat what you had already
stated and possibly you made a setting change inside the Preference
folder and clicking on the "Universal Access" icon and then made
changes to the "Zoom" options in the "seeing" tab.
Wish I knew exactly what you had before but I have now exhausted my
lack of knowledge on the Zoom Chronicles.

Folks, Apple did a total reinstall because I had issues with my MBp

So, my settings are all gone and being old and of feeble mind, I
have forgotten about many things. Being also feeble eyed, I used to
enlarge texts where I did not have the little and big A to do the
trick, by clicking control and then scrolled with my mouse. Now
this gives you the seasickness effect unless , and that I have
forgotten, unless you do something with your cursor to center it,
so the pages don't fly back and forth when you move the cursor.
Can someone enlighten me how to go about it? I know you can't do
things along the edges, but then ---- please give me insight, give
me advice, give me help from the Lord, the devil or from some other
knowledgeable source.
