Better Desktop Zoom

This extension makes the GNOME magnifier behave similarly to the Zoom desktop effect in KDE:

  • press Meta+= to start zooming or increase the zoom level
  • press Meta+- to decrease the zoom level or stop zooming

These shortcuts, as well as the zoom factor, can be changed in the extension preferences.

Installation

The extension is available for installation on the GNOME Shell Extensions website.

To install manually follow the steps below:

  • download the latest version of the extension from the releases page
