    Newbie - Question on Vista / Magnifier feature

    Hi everybody,

    I know how to turn the Vista Magnifier On or Off, using the Control Panel.

    However, assuming the Magnifier is preset to turn on at startup, how can I
    turn it temporarily on or off in an easy way, by means of a "bistable"
    command for instance ?

    Anyone ?

    Thanks in adavance for your kind help.
    With best regards,

    Daniel

    Thank you for your kind help, Dave-UK.
    That's a good idea. Much better than going into the control panel.
    I'll do that.
    With best regards,
    Daniel
