Virtual Magnifying Glass Reviews

This tool is indispensable. I sit a yard away from my display. The tiny text used by amateur UI designers makes their software unusable without VMG.

I'd like the GUI to have an option to be circular. I have use it for years, now it gets update more often, it's nice. More people should use it, very useful. I use it on Irfanview, to see colors more closely and with OperaGX Shader: BoostFX, so see how this shader, changes colors; and for many other environments, highly recommended

Light and reliable!

I have been using this app for years on Windows, Mac, even an old Linux. I love it! It's better on a Windows machine (which I use for work) than it is on a Mac because shortcuts and keystrokes are easier to program. However, I use a Mac at home and I am using Mac OS Big Sur version 11.0 Beta and I was wondering if you guys were going to put out an update? It stopped working and said The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information. So that's what I'm doing. Maybe I'll send an email too. Cheers, Paul

Thank you very much for the free open source program!

Good enough. Supports old Windows as well as new one

Ridiculously cumbersome to get to move the dynamic magnifyer. Crosshairs showing where the mouse is positioned is like 30-50 pixels too high (Windows 7 bootcamp on late 2012 MacBook pro) Very disappointing. Would have been a great tool

Very nice project. Could be more flexible with shortcuts. For example: Use magnifier.ini file to change ASDW shortcuts in other configuration.

Close, but needs more refinements, such as ... - Needs more flexible shortcut key options - make it user definable At least, make the shortcut key a 1-handed or 1-finger (F-key) effort. - Needs ability to enable/disable left-click to exit magnification - Needs better image/font smoothing - Can't click and drag to select text or move objects while magnifier is active - Can click buttons or other items without closing magnifier - Cursor does not show while magnifier is active - BUG: Switching between apps doesn't keep magnifier in front. - BUG: Magnifier window won't show taskbar/system tray. The last item may be a conflict with Start10 published by Stardock. This is a Windows 10 utility for customizing the start menu and task bar.

really cool ! Mde's choices "dynamic" and "clasic"

Great update! the previous version was antialiasing the pictures even when it was supposed not to do it. This version has the Antialias option ghosted, but that is good for me since that's what I need, no antialias at all. Now, if feature request number 34 could be fulfilled, it would be PERFECT! (and it is very easy to do!)

Good !! but lacks some important points. 99 % is done, but the 1 % easy to do of perfection is missing!!. Mouse cursor should be visible.! Or optional. Size and magnification should be more flexible to change, like CTRL + or - while active. Using the same mouse wheel to activate (with a click) is an option to take in account. Having to use all ctrl-alt-key as a shortcut is very uncomfortable. As I said... almost.

Superb tool, simple and easy to install. Thanks a lot!

This would suit my needs perfectly if only... the magnifying rectangle could extend from the mouse cursor at the top left instead of from the mouse cursor in the centre (A feature request, please!... make this a tick-box option!) For reading long lines of text starting at the left of the screen... with the width at 1600 pixels the magnifier reaches across the whole screen... but I end up magnifying to the left of where I want and not extending fully across the screen. ie. at double magnification I would expect to see half of the real-screen from the left edge (magnified to full width virtual screen) but I get quarter of the screen magnified to half width, with the other half of the magnifier lost off the edge.

very good project, thanks

Thanks again for the hard work!

Fast and Efficient. better than Windows based programs and FREE.

Really cool.

I think it is one of the best. I want to use some other fuction.

It is just perfect!

I recommend this program strongly!

Great tool, I use it everywhere and recommend and install for everyone I know.

Best program for Windows.

Simply perfect!

I'd like open source software.
