Hi Robert, Thank you for your email. I have been working on implementing some new features for the magnifier this summer (with the help of Joseph Scheuhammer and the rest of the A11y team) that you may be interested in learning about as a magnifier user. I will be emailing the list about these improvements shortly to to explain and request feedback, but for now, I will just try to help with your questions. 1. Is there some way to adjust the granularity of the keyboard shortcut for the magnification? 200%, 300%, etc is too coarse. I did see that I could increment by 25% in the accessibility settings dialog but not with the shortcut. I do realize I could set the shortcut for something and then use the on/off toggle to switch between but I don't always use the same level. If this is addressed somewhere else please point me in that direction. I am not sure how to answer this actually, I think it should be the same so I will have to look into things and get back to you. Can you confirm which shortcut you have been using to increase the magnification level? 2. Is there some way to create a keyboard shortcut for reverse video? I don't need it all the time and going to the settings dialog every time is a bit of a PITA. If I understand what you mean by ´reverse video' correctly, then there is, yes. I have attached a photo of the dialogue you need to go to. This dialogue is found in the keyboard settings of the control center. Please let me know if I misunderstood what you were asking about or if it does not solve things.

I have a few questions: 1. Is there some way to adjust the granularity of the keyboard shortcut for the magnification? 200%, 300%, etc is too coarse. I did see that I could increment by 25% in the accessibility settings dialog but not with the shortcut. I do realize I could set the shortcut for something and then use the on/off toggle to switch between but I don't always use the same level.

I don't need it all the time and going to the settings dialog every time is a bit of a PITA. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Again, if this is documented somewhere that I've not been able to find via google, please point me in that direction. Best regards, rdc
