i have low vision so i need to use screen magnifiers and i am having a
lot of issues with the zoom feature in accessibility.
1. zoom focus shifts - lets assume a window in the center of the screen
and i am at 3x zoom and i try to point my mouse at something and try to
click that. 90% of the time zoom focus shifts away from the mouse
location to mostly top left corner of the screen.
2. mouse pointing away from the object - Similarly when i reach above
some zoom limit sets say 4x and now lets say i am in a browser trying to
click a link i point at the link cursor changes to hand and when i try
to click i couldnt. So i try to zoom out and i fid that the pointer was
not exactly placed on the link. To sum up when zoomed in it seems like i
am pointing at a link while the cursor is actually placed away from the
link
3. Compressing text - after reaching certain high zoom level as said 4x
or 5x the content on the screen becomes a bit compressed on the sides
texts and images and everything on screen becomes elongated
I actually tried using a combination of settings available within the
zoom settings but i had the same result no matter the setting i use I
love working with linux ubuntu especially but this makes it really
frustrating at times as i have to heavily rely on such features as
magnifiers and screen readers.
