I spent almost an hour looking for such a solution. I found many but paid only. This one is super great as well as you. Thanks a lot

[@DeployJeremy]

Glad to help! It's been updated recently, too, with a few new capabilities.

[@andreajensendigitaltrainer9518]

Awesome- Thankyou. Now I need to practice, practice, practice!!!!

[@DeployJeremy]

Glad you liked it. Yes, it takes practice, but once you're good at it, it will impress everyone they'll ask you what you're doing 😉

Here are some ZoomIt Default Shortcuts:
Remember to always open Zoom It at least once to “turn on” the functionality. (The program also offers instructions and toggling capabilities.)
Zoom: Ctrl+1
Exit Zoom: Esc or Right Mouse Click
Draw Mode: Ctrl + D (Left mouse Click while in zoom mode)
 Ctrl + Z = Undo
 E = erase all
 Hold CTRL and press UP or DOWN arrow keys to change size of pen.
 Change pen color by pressing R(red), G(green), B(blue), O(orange), Y(yellow), and P(pink)
 Hold SHIFT to draw straight lines.
 Hold CTRL to draw boxes.
 Hold TAB to draw circles.
 Hold SHIFT+CTRL to draw arrows.
 W = white sketchpad
 K = Black sketchpad
 CTRL+C to copy screen
 CTRL+S to save screenshot
RIGHT CLICK to exit drawing mode.
Typing Mode = T while in Zoom mode
ESC or LEFT CLICK to exit typing mode.

How do I determine if it's better to do it this way live or download to my pc?

[@DeployJeremy]

You have to download to your PC either way. The live.sysinternals.com site still downloads Zoomit to your local drive.

[@nileshbhagwan9119]

i am using zoomIt and windows magnifier. when i am recording my screen with any software. after zooming the screen it shows two mouse pointer in video output. but not in live working. why it showing two mouse pointer

[@DeployJeremy]

If you're using Camtasia, it records the cursor as a separate layer. In those cases, if you see a second cursor, you can disable the other one by setting its opacity to 100%.

[@KaranKumar-pl4fy]

After uninstalling zoomit, sysinternals screen Magnifier still working please help me to disable it😭😭😭

[@DeployJeremy]

Did you delete the Zoomit.exe from your PC? It doesn't install like an MSI to program files and is likely in your downloads folder

[@제인-y9u]

Does anyone know how to decrease the pen size? I think my zoomit bugged out.

[@DeployJeremy]

I have not had to do this myself, but try pressing the Ctrl key with down arrow while in drawing mode.

"Hold CTRL and press UP or DOWN arrow keys to change size of pen." this just zoom in and out and not changing pen size

[@hoangcamapas]
