Public bug reported: gnome-control-center universal access panel has a switch for a screen magnifier and a further dialog with a heap of settings presumably for gnome-mag which is not installed in Ubuntu by default. Having installed the gnome-mag package these settings still do nothing.
The settings should be hidden altogether unless they can be demonstrated to work. Ideally this should be the place to set up keyboard and mouse bindings for the compiz enhanced zoom plugin. I like to use super+mouse button 4 to zoom in and super+button 5 to zoom out, these are the mousewheel buttons. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/945813 Title: magnification settings do not work on Ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/945813/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
