The built-in magnifier to Mac OS is really really nice for my awful vision. However, I find that it is suboptimal when I have more than one screen. I would like to be zoomed in on my main monitor while remaining zoomed out on my laptop monitor, keeping track of my mail, watching a full screen movie or something like that. Unfortunately, when I zoom in, it zooms BOTH screens in, an annoyance.
So...
- Is there a way to zoom each screen independently? I don't think there's an official way, but unofficial hacks are welcome too.
- Failing that, is there a magnification program that only zooms in a small window surrounding the mouse, leaving the rest of the screen regularly sized? I think I found one program a while back, but the name escapes me and it cost cash money. If I have that, I sidestep the problem entirely.
