There is also a small add-on for Windows XP that allows the magnifier to run on the start bar along the bottom of the screen. You can then make the task bar larger if you wish. I don't know how much use this is in practise, but you may like to try it and see. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx It's called taskbar magnifier: there's other useful stuff there as well.

Have to tried experimenting with Windows built in magnifier, but set to a magnification of 1 (Normal size). You can set the upper (magnification) window such that it effectively provides a ruler. Cheap and cheerful, but it works for many. George Bell Techno-Vision Systems Ltd > -----Original Message----- > From: Discussion list for disabled students and their support > staff.
