When the magnifier is turned off and minimized, the icon is left in random positions on the display. Is there anyway to drag the icon to a position that I choose? The icon is almost always in a bad position for reading or typing.

How can I move the magnifying glass off the center of the screen?

Anyone know if there’s any shortcuts for like activate or zoom in/out? I found an old page but those shortcuts don’t work :(

Every time I use the magnifier, whether on the desktop or in an open document or on the internet, after I close it, all the desktop icons are re-arranged – all scattered around the desktop. I don’t want that to happen. Why is it happening?

In reply to Kat.

Hi Kat,

I have this exact same setup as you and need the option you describe as well. I think it would save a great deal of time (and my eyesight) if there is an app out there that allows for this setup. I can’t find anything like it online.
Please let me know if you’ve found something that works.

Thanks,
Katie
