Ok, since gnome-shell has a screen magnifier let's say it's an unity
issue and it should have one as well

Comment #1 says it was already an issue in lucid which is using a not so
patched GNOME 2.30, that doesn't seem related to Unity, would still need
debugging by somebody who understands how accessibility tools are
working (which seems to not be a lot of people there)

Ok, I just tried on a fresh Oneiric test installation from this week,
assigned shift-Z to toggle onscreen keyboard, then I pressed shift-Z
and got onboard open on screen... I can't confirm the issue

It's true that the toggle changes, but on my system the magnifier does
not appear or in fact magnify.

Title:
There was a program named /usr/bin/magnifier in the gnome-mag package
which allegedly provided magnification under GNOME2, but it wasn't
started by Accessibility services correctly, and even if started
manually, it still didn't work. In Oneiric, that package exists but is
not installed by default
The best solution for users of magnificatino in Oneiric is the COmpiz
eZoom plugin, however it does not have focus tracking support, and does
not magnify any parts of Unity, i.e the panel, dash, and laucner all
stay the same size, whilst the rest of the user's desktop is magnified.
We don't have
While the Compiz Zoom plugin might be appropriate for advanced users,
modulo the significant caveats you mentioned, it requires manually
configuring Compiz with ccsm, which is not installed by default, and
which is beyond the capability of most users. It is therefore not an
appropriately general
is that still an issue in Oneiric?

I'm not convinced that this is a GNOME bug. First of all, it doesn't
appear in other distributions (at least not in Fedora). Second, given
the fairly radical changes that Ubuntu has made to the user interface in
recent versions (e.g. Unity), I wouldn't be surprised if loss of

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since
this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work,
I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
