A Quick Fix for the Eyes
Are you tired of squinting when you read your e-mail? Maybe someone sent you something that's just too difficult to read as is.
Looking for a quick way to make the font larger, but without making the change permanent?
If so, I've got just the thing for you!
In MS Outlook, as well as, Outlook Express, you will be happy to find that the Ctrl key combined with your mouse scroll wheel will enlarge (and shrink) the e-mail text you're trying to read.
All you need to do is place your mouse pointer over the e-mail body, hold down the Ctrl key and spin the wheel. (Sounds a bit like a game show, doesn't it? Too bad the only prize is happier eyes!)
Also, as a bonus, you'll find that this little trick works in both the Preview Pane and in the e-mail when it's fully opened.
I feel that I must warn you though. In some versions of Outlook, this works for the text of the e-mail, but not the pictures. You will find that pictures stay as they are. That means if the text you're trying to enlarge is part of a picture in the e-mail, you're out of luck.
But, are you ready for the best part?!
This feature will work in other MS Office Suite programs as well! You can control the zoom generic viagra australia in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. with the Ctrl + scroll wheel function. Yes!
You've just entered the no squinting zone. Isn't it nice to read in comfort for once?!
